Jordan moved closer step by step.
He was still the boy I remembered, but the youthfulness had faded, replaced by maturity
and restraint.
You deleted WhatsApp, canceled your phone number. Even the teachers couldn’t find you. Hannah, you’re really something.”
I slowly lifted my head and met his gaze.
“You should have… used your connections to find out by now, right? My family went bankrupt. My dad got caught in financial disputes and still hasn’t paid off the debts…”
“Why didn’t you tell me back then?” he asked.
I was speechless.
“Was it because of your pride, Miss Torres?”
“No…” I started to say.

“Huh? Hannah! It really is you!” she exclaimed.
She was even more beautiful than in college, polished down to every strand of hair.
“Long time no see. All our classmates have been looking for you. Why haven’t we heard from you in four years?”
“I went to Ogrialand,” I replied.
“No wonder,” Elena looked me up and down, surprised. “Hannah, isn’t that the dow.. jacket you bought in junior year? It’s all worn out. Why are you still wearing it?”
I used to throw out clothes after wearing them for just one year.

“It’s not damaged. It’s still wearable,” I said.
Elena nodded knowingly. “Are you having financial difficulties now? You should have said something. I can help you.”
e pulled out a card.
“Take it. No need to pay me back,” she said.
“Thanks, but I don’t need it,” I replied.
I looked at her, then at Jordan, and smiled quietly.
“I’m getting married soon. Remember to come,” I said.
As soon as I said that, Jordan was completely stunned.
