Chapter 1660 Transition
Manuel thought about the fact that Angelica did not understand how attractive she was. Pacino almost went crazy from her. And she sat here and worried that no one would like her.
“I don’t care, he has to keep your word, I remember everything you just said.”
Although she knew she was acting brazenly, Angelica was afraid that if she did not, she would not have a chance.
Manuel remained silent, and after a long silence, he tapped her forehead.
” It is impossible that no one likes it.”
Initially, Angelica’s eyes were bright, like stars in the sky, but when she heard his words, she immediately felt a strong depression, stopping to watch him pitifully from her seat.
“Manuel … don’t you like me?”Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
Manuel was speechless for a moment.
” Why do you keep quiet? Don’t you like me? Was the favor I asked you before too complicated? If my request does not cross borders, do you already have a girlfriend?
Manuel: “?”
He did not understand what Angelica’s emotional control problem was. She didn’t seem to say anything like that, not even deny anything. But suddenly it became like that.
Angelica thought about it, her eyes turned a little red, she bit her lower lip and stared at him.
Manuel, you must think I’m being unreasonable right now. Yes?
– No, why would I think that?
Manuel had a slight headache. He did not really know how to deal with the crying girl, but when he saw her red eyes, he was so upset that he had to take her small hand and pull her toward him.
– Don’t cry, I said the wrong thing.
It was better if he did not convince her, but as soon as he did, Angelica’s tears could not be stopped, baring the corners of her eyes and sliding down her entire face.
Yesterday he cried as she wrapped her arms around his waist. He was full of confusion, as if a soul had been ripped out of him. It took him a long time to react. Today was the same, and Manuel was startled when he saw his tears.
Angelica cried and cried. In fact, she did not want to. She considered herself an adult and thought she had to grow up, otherwise Manuel would again say that she would forever remain a child in his eyes. Angelica should have behaved more maturely, but when she heard Manuel say that it was impossible for anyone to need her, she proved that he rejected her.
Angelica couldn’t help herself for a while, and then she felt that she was too emotional, had to wipe away her tears and try to restrain herself.
Manuel also helped her wipe away her tears, but the harder she tried, the worse it was. Finally, Manuel took her snow-white face and whispered, “I didn’t say I don’t like you, nor did I say I don’t want you, so why are you suddenly crying like this? Even if you want to punish me, you have to give a normal explanation, right?
Angelica kept crying, I wanted to say something, but for a long time she couldn’t.
– Okay, stop crying. Manuel said anxiously. – If you continue, I don’t know what to do.”
Angelica pulled up with her nose and suddenly pointed a finger to her cheek.
Manuel squinted slightly, not understanding what he was going to do. Seeing that Manuel was doing nothing, Angelica burst into tears again.
“Don’t cry, don’t cry. I’ll do whatever you want me to do, I’ll even give you my life, okay?”
“Really, really?” Angelica asked in a buzzing voice, still sobbing but the tears finally tended to stop and Manuel sighed with relief.
“-Yes, really, let’s talk about it, what do you want me to do?”
Angelica made that gesture again, pointing once more to her pale cheek, and Manuel still did not understand it, and could only tighten his lips for a moment before asking, “What does it mean?”
Angelica’s eyes were in tears, and she said bitterly.
Kiss me.
Manuel froze in place and was a little confused.
“Don’t you want to?”
At these words, Manuel rolled the knot in his throat up and down before taking the girl’s hand and saying seriously, ” Angelica, you heard that you are still too young, so …”
” I am no longer a little one! Angelica grumbled, trying to take Manuel’s hand away. I am an adult. Just yesterday you gave me a gift for adulthood. Have you forgotten?
It was true that she had come of age yesterday, but for Manuel she was still the child he remembered, and it was fine to ask him to love and spoil her, but to ask him to …
He really couldn’t do it. He thought it was too wild. Will he still be human if he kisses her?
When she looked at his thin lips and saw that he had not moved, her eyes darkened:
– I’m obviously an adult, why don’t you want to? It’s because you really don’t like me.”
Manuel coughed slightly and explained to Angelica in a different way.
“Silly girl, this kind of thing can only be between couples, you …”
” – Then be my boyfriend.”
Angelica then grabbed Manuel by the neck, expressing her feelings passionately and directly. “When you gave me the necklace yesterday, I kissed you too. Then you didn’t refuse. I thought you at least liked it.
Manuel’s head hurts even more at the mention of that kiss on the Ferris wheel yesterday, the same act that kept him awake all last night.
As soon as she closed her eyes, her shy face, thick eyebrows, soft lips and the sound of water in the bathroom, which made her heart restless.
God knows how Manuel spent that night, such suffering was simply unimaginable. However, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he looked like an animal.
It was true that Angelica loved him , and it was also true that he had kept his promise not to have a girlfriend and to wait for her to grow up.
But he believed that the two should have at least a transition period that would give Angelica time to become aware of her feelings.
Perhaps he will find that there is only affection between them, not love.
But the time has not yet come if he agrees or kisses her, what if she regrets it in the future?
Manuel treated Angelica differently from the others. He did not want to change girls, to try to separate himself from those with whom nothing happened. He believed that he would have to make a final decision and therefore he would never let go of his soul mate and his whole life would be only with her.
And such thoughts, perhaps, may frighten her.
That is why Manuel wanted to give her more time to realize this, but he did not expect Angelica to worry so much.
Manuel? Angelica hugged him by the neck for a long time. Noticing that he was silent the whole time, she let him go and met a gaze with his deep, black, tar-like eyes-there were so many complex emotions in them.
