On the other side, when Dylan and Nora were leaving the cafe, Nora stopped in her track and said, "Dylan, you can leave without me."
Dylan looked at her for a moment before asking, "Why?"
Nora looked back at him and replied, "I can't leave like this. I really want to talk to him. Even if it's just for a minute, I want him to look at me."
Dylan pressed his lips together and wanted to talk her out of it but seeing the desperation in her eyes, he couldn't bring himself to say anything at all. Instead, he nodded his head and went in the direction of his car.
Even though it was an early autumn night, there was still a chill in the air that made Nora shiver or perhaps, it was her jumbled up nerves. Regardless of which it was, she rubbed her hands up and down her arms and looked at the glass door of the cafe which opened and Qiu Meihui walked out with Xin Xiaosi right behind her.
