Everyone around us could see how deeply he cared for me. People even joked, “Come on, Gavin’s loaded, handsome, and crazy about you. Just give the guy a chance already!”
But at that time, I was completely oblivious, just a nerd who couldn’t take a hint
I was all about my study, setting ambitious goals for myself.
Nothing could stop me from moving forward, and no one could make me give up my future.
So, I often treated Gavin like air.
Whenever he tried to strike up a conversation or show kindness, I ignored him.
When he gave me roses and chocolates, I’d just toss them into the trash and walk away.
My classmates all said I was being too cold–hearted toward him.

But despite my indifference, I managed to get
Even when I was overseas, Gavin didn’t give up–he pursued me even more relentlessly.
He flew to see me every week and even showed up at one of our college’s events, confessing his love for me in front of everyone, saying, “I love you.” That was when I first felt something strange toward him.
