Belinda examined Daisy closely, smirking. She was hard to read at this moment.
"Is there anything wrong with me? Why are you staring at me?" Daisy said while pulling up the collar of her blouse, trying to hide the love marks that Edward gave her. She wondered what Belinda possibly saw.
"It's too late. You can't hide those, anyway. Uh-huh! So how many times did you do it last night?" Belinda asked in a low voice, suddenly leaning close to Daisy. Her evil smile clearly showed what was on her mind.
She blushed immediately. She was hoping to hide her love bites with a high-collared blouse, but it was to little avail. Belinda noticed them right away.
"Belinda, you're so obscene!" Daisy was speechless. What a dirty mind!
"Huh! Why do you simply criticize me? Your Edward is a brute. Do you know what time it is?" Belinda sipped her coffee. Huh! She remembered Edward had hung up her. She hoped Daisy would call back. She waited a long time for Daisy to give her a ring.
"It's not even 1 pm. Still early." Daisy blurted out the lame remark, but she tried to make light of it with her tone.
"Yes! Of course! Early, if you like exercising late at night!" Belinda sneered at Daisy. She found Daisy much more attractive than before. 'Maybe the magic power of love?' she thought. 'If she could be more enthusiastic she'd be the perfect woman.'
'What's wrong with Belinda? Why is she all of sudden mocking me? Was it something she ate? Why is she so harsh to me today?' Daisy wondered.
"Just go ahead and laugh. You won't be so full of laughter when it's your turn." Daisy squinted at Belinda and took a sip of coffee, rather relaxed.
"Huh! Unlikely!" Belinda said, disapproval coloring her voice. 'I'm to
r in painting because of a casual word from Edward. And she loved painting! And her irresponsible father agreed to finance her overseas study, as long as she never returned to the house.
"Belinda, do you think that I'm silly? I desperately fell in love with Edward, even though I was sure nothing would come of it. But all these years, loving him has become a habit. If I stopped loving him one day, it's only because my heart stopped beating." Daisy said these words to Belinda very calmly. Her gaze was hollow and distant.
"Does Edward know how you feel?" Belinda felt very sad now. A lump formed in her throat, her eyes burned from tears that started forming. If it were her, she'd just let the man know her feelings, and see what he had to say.
"I don't know. I never thought about telling him. But if he doesn't love me, then hope would die in me, along with my pride and self-esteem." Daisy said. She thought if one day Edward really fell in love with her, she would tell him that there was a girl who grew up with secret love for him. She grew stronger in her firm belief, and matured with the passing days, missing him the whole time.
