Why didn’t he show himself if he was at home? He should’ve said something so that I didn’t have to argue with Felix.
Where was he when I needed him? Just when I wanted to experience the happiness of
reading my love letters, he came to disrupt things.
Well, since he was here, I had to open the door.
“Colin, do you need something?” I blocked the doorway, not wanting him to come in.
It wouldn’t be good to let him see the mess on the couch.
But he didn’t even bother to respond to my question. He just raised his arm to push me aside and swaggered into the living room. He plopped down in my spot, casually picked up the letter, and started reading, “Dear Lulu, you’re like the sky…”
Why was he reading it out loud? This was so embarrassing and annoying.
I hurried over and covered his mouth with one hand. I snatched the few sheets of paper he was holding with the other and put them back in the box. Then, I nervously asked if he
wanted water.
“No thanks. Are these all from Matthew?” Colin pulled my hand away, his eyes still glancing
at the box.
“I think so. I haven’t had the chance to read the others yet.”
“So many years have passed. Why would you want them back now? Do you really have feelings for Matthew?” Colin raised an eyebrow, gazing at me deeply.
“Colin, you’re asking the wrong question. It doesn’t matter whether I have feelings for Matthew or not. I’m just taking back my things. What’s the point of leaving them with someone else?
“Even if it’s something I don’t want, I should be the one to throw it away. It’s not Felix’s right to do anything to these letters.”
“Forget about it. I’m going out anyway. I’ll just throw them away for you so that have to go out again. It’s getting late. I need to go now. See you.”
you don’t
Just like that, Colin grabbed the blue box and took away the letters I hadn’t read without asking for my opinion.

I wanted to snatch them back, but his fierce glare made me hesitant.
I stared at the box in his hand until the faint sound of the door closing made me realize I had been tricked by him.
I finally got my love letters back after a fight, but I had only read the first two lines of one letter before Colin kindly helped me throw everything away.
Actually, I thought about resisting, about rushing over to stop him and grabbing my things
back. But I didn’t dare to do it.
The winter holidays passed quickly. School was starting again soon. Colin brought me back to the north a few days before the first day of school.
We landed at six in the evening, but it was already pitch–black outside. Snow was still falling, and the orange streetlights blended everything into beautiful scenery.
The lights in front of the airport were bright, and taxis waiting for passengers lined up in long queues. They disappeared into the traffic one by one after their doors were closed with a bang.
Colin’s car was at school, so we had to take a taxi.
“We’ll drop off the luggage at school and go out for dinner. Winter nights are long here. Not eating might make you too hungry to fall asleep.”
Colin and I sat side by side in the back seat. The light from the streetlamps and passing cars cast on his face. The flickering made his handsome features look mysterious.
