Chapter 61 The Gentle Look (Part One)
After she finished her class in the afternoon, Leena arrived at Miguel's company early and waited for
Miguel to get off work. Miguel asked, "Why are you waiting here? Why didn't you tell me that you are
here? "
Leena said, "It's OK. I don't have anything else to do anyway. It's okay to wait for a while. "She had
already left a bad impression on Mike since she had troubled Miguel two times already. If she disturb
Miguel when he is working overtime, Mike will definitely be unsatisfied.
Miguel asked, "Have you eaten yet? "
"Not yet. "
"Let's have dinner together. "
"Okay! "Leena smiled.
Miguel took her hand and got in the car. He smiled at her and said, "I'm glad you came to see me. "
Leena just smiled without saying anything.
When they got in the car, Miguel said, "Do you have any plans after dinner? How about visiting our high
school together? "
Leena agreed without hesitation since she didn't have any plan. It was good to go back to high school.
After graduation, she had never gone back. Firstly, her new home was far away from the school.
Secondly, she was busy with her work. Besides, high school was also a sad place. If she went back,
she would only think too much, so she had never gone back.
Miguel found a western restaurant for dinner. During the dinner, Leena said, "Thank you for sending
breakfast to me this morning. "
"What breakfast? Miguel raised his head in confusion.
Leena was surprised. Seeing that he was confused and serious, she was also stunned. "Wasn't you
send it here? "
"Did you get breakfast this morning? I left the hospital last night. When I got up in the morning, my arm
was very painful. I was late for work and had no time to buy breakfast. But I will bring you breakfast
every day in the future. Miguel explained.
Leena felt strange. She wondered who else would tell her not to go out and bring her breakfast besides
Miguel. After thinking for a while, she thought of a person, but she felt that her idea was very abrupt.
Why him? How would she think of him? It was impossible for him to care about her so much?
Miguel asked, "What's wrong? Who sent you the breakfast? "
"Maybe I get it wrong. It was bought by Rena. No one sent breakfast. "
Miguel didn't ask too much. After chatting for a while, they went to the campus.
Their high school had a history of a hundred years. It was not only the oldest and but also the most
famous high school in A city. They hadn't seen the campus for nine years and it didn't change much.
After all, the land had almost been developed. Only two dormitory buildings had been newly built, and
one teaching building had been renovated. The track and field had been improved, the lab had been
expanded, and some green belt had been slightly adjusted. But generally speaking, the shadow of the
old school was still there, and they could still find the place where they had played in the past.
It was time for self-study at night. The classroom was brightly lit. Students were in class, and there was
no one on the playground. Only one or two teachers walked around, and some elders took children out
to play on the fitness field. The two of them walked in the campus leisurely, and Miguel held Leena's
hand naturally.
Looking at their holding hands, Leena said, "We are in the campus. I'm afraid it will have a bad impact.
"
Miguel smiled, "There are no students now. You are an adult. What are you afraid of? "
Well, Leena was teased. But at this moment, she didn't reject Miguel for holding her hand. They could
see their shadows everywhere here. At that time, Miguel was a big shot in the school because of his
handsome look and also because of his identity. So there were always a group of girls around him. He
was also a positive man. Although he was not arrogant, he didn't mind showing his charm. Therefore,
wherever he went, there were girls talking about him. At that time, Miguel had a nickname---school
hunk.
Like many innocent young girls, Leena looked up at this school hunk. Although she was his neighbor,
there was always a distance between them, because he was so dazzling and she so humble. The only
thing she was good at was study. As for the rest, she was much inferior to other girls in terms of
appearance, communication ability and charm.
At that time, she was very rustic. She wore a ponytail every day. She wore a very loose school uniform RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
and very outdated sneakers, and a pair of annoying black frame glasses. She was riding an old bike.
Her father always promoted frugality, so she never dressed up. Most of the time, no one knew that she
was the daughter of Bowen. They only treated her as the child of a laid-off worker. As for Miguel, he
looked very fashionable even if he wore an ugly school uniform. When he stood in the crowd, he would
always be the first to be recognized.
What Leena did most every day was to calculate the time to go out of the community, and then silently
followed Miguel to school by bike. She had been watching him all the time without making a sound.
She had never surpassed him, too. Sometimes, she even nearly got hit by a car when she crossed the
road, only to see him. And Miguel would never know that there was such an ordinary and humble girl
behind staring at him.
After school, she came to the bike shed early to wait for him. Sometimes she pretended to fix the car or
try to turn the key. In a word, she dawdled until he came to pick up his bike. She did all these silly
things every day just to wait for him and to sneak a look at him. Occasionally, her classmates would
say hello to her. "Is your bike broken? I see you fix it every day. Do you need help? "
Leena waved her hand and said, "No, it's OK. I'll fix it. "
Her classmate said, "Your bike is too old. You should buy a new one! "
"My brother left this bike to me. I've been riding it for so many years and I don't want to change it. "
She always used this as an excuse for fixing the car and waited for Miguel every day. From then on,
there was a rumor that she was the daughter of a poor worker, but she didn't care about other people's
opinions. She was satisfied as long as she can see Miguel every day.
Sometimes when she walked on the school road, she would always pay attention to the surrounding
environment to see if Miguel appeared. She would be extremely happy if he appeared. If he walked in
front of her, she would stare at him all the time. She almost forgot everything when she looked at his
back; if he walked behind her, she would be particularly lively, talking and laughing with her classmates
loudly in an attempt to attract his attention; if he just walked forward and quickly passed her, she would
not dare to look at him. But when he walked away, she would keep looking back and reviewing the past
moment.
She didn't know how silly she was at that time. She could like a person so much that she would
secretly write his name, draw his portrait and hide it in her diary. When no one was around, she would
repeat his name again and again, "Miguel, Miguel 'Miguel...' "It seemed that the name had been
engraved in her heart.
