Mykel Dankworth was curious about what she was thinking, because he saw a hint of sadness in Aubree Groove's eyes.
She always controlled her emotions well, never allowing feelings of joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness to show openly. Except for her calm and gentle gaze, no other emotional tones were present.
So when he saw an expression of sadness in her eyes, one he had never seen before, it shocked him. For a moment, it felt as though his heart was being tightly squeezed, causing a throbbing pain.
The young lady looked blankly for a while, picked up her bag, and turned to leave.
Mykel Dankworth quickly caught up with her without saying a word, following quietly by her side.
The snowflakes weren't large, falling lightly on their bodies, melting into misty drops that wet their eyelashes.
