When Xiu didn't disagree with his words, Darren's lips lifted up in an arc as he realized how right he was. She really didn't delete his number. Even when she wanted to, she couldn't bring herself to. Oddly, she wanted to talk to that stranger who didn't know her. She wanted to be the real her, the side that only he managed to bring out of her.
"Since you won't say it, let me tell you that I really was waiting for your call," said Darren in all honesty without any hesitation.
Xiu was taken aback by his words. And a gush of warmth spread in her heart knowing that there was someone who actually was waiting for her, just like she was. She closed her eyes as she said, "Instead of waiting for so long, you could have dialed this number as you did just now."
