Chapter 3313 Figure It Out
"I do like someone, but he's not just some random guy," said Rain.
Before Gale could process what she meant, he burst into tears. "So, you really have fallen for someone else!*
Rain was rendered speechless. How could he not catch what she was trying to say even when she was trying to be sentimental for once?
"Gale, I swear, if you get this drunk again, I'll chop you into pieces!" Rain threatened harshly. "You're such a mess right now. If I recorded you and posted the video online, you'd go viral."
His crying stopped abruptly. He looked at her with widened eyes. "What did you just say?"NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Rain was at a loss for words. How could someone be so clear-headed one moment and so out of it the next?
"Rain, I'm drunk, so my hearing's a bit off and my memory's not great either. Could you repeat what you said?" Gale continued to mumble.
Rain had no choice but to say, "Fine, listen carefully. I do like someone, but he's not some random guy."
Gale blinked. Not some random guy. He suddenly sat up straight. "If he's not a random guy, then it must be someone I know and someone I hang out with. Is it..."
"You're still trying to figure out who it is, huh? Gale, sometimes your brain just doesn't seem to work right." Rain shook her head helplessly. Normally, he was so sharp, but he was completely clueless when it came to feelings. Actually, he was even slower than she was.
At least, she realized something had changed the moment she decided to cook for him that first time. However, since he had not shown any interest, she kept quiet.
She was afraid that if she said something, they would not even be able to stay friends, and things would be awkward between them.
"So, you're saying you like me, right?" Gale blinked his eyes.
"Yes," Rain admitted it without hesitation. After all, he had already confessed his feelings first. She was just responding.
Gale blinked his eyes again, convinced he was hallucinating. "I must be seeing things because I'm drunk. That can't be right. You've never acted like you liked me."
"Gale, Luca is right about one thing-I only cook for the guy I like. Have you ever seen me cook for anyone else? You used to think my cooking was just a way to mess with you, and I didn't correct you.
"But now that we've laid everything out, think about it when you're sober. Do you really believe the things I did were just what you thought they were?"
Rain finished speaking and started heading upstairs. Halfway up, she turned around and gave him a warning in a low voice, "And don't go acting like a drunk idiot in my house. If I find out you threw up tomorrow, you're done for!"
Gale did not seem to hear her at all. He just kept grinning like a fool.
He liked Rain, and she just said she liked him too.
They liked each other.
Rain had not fallen for some random guy. She had fallen for him!
The feeling of mutual affection was amazing!
When Rain reached the second floor, she could still hear Gale's goofy laughter.
"Silly guy," muttered Rain, smiling to herself.
The following day, Gale woke up on the couch and rubbed his throbbing forehead as he opened his eyes.
Something unusual had happened last night, and it filled him with wild excitement. However, he had drunk a bit too much, so recalling the events was a slow process.
He thought about the last part and perked up, blinking his eyes. Those memories were real and not just a dream, right?
"You're awake?" Rain's voice broke through his thoughts.
Gale turned his head toward her voice and saw her standing there. He grinned as he said, "Last night... We..."
"I made some hangover tea. Do you want some?" asked Rain. "It tastes bad, so if you can't make do with it, feel free to have something else."
"Not at all! How could I feel that way?" Gale quickly sat up and took the mug from her hands.
His smile faltered looking at the dark green liquid inside. He had a feeling some things were better left unsaid, and now, it seemed too late to have regrets.
"What kind of hangover tea is this?" Gale forced a smile as he asked, puzzled. Rain's hangover teas were always different and had unique flavors. If he had to find a common point, it was that they were all equally terrible.
The color of this one looked frightening, so it probably tasted just as bad.
"A few types of vegetables and some honey," Rain recalled. "I just used whatever was in the kitchen. A hangover tea has to taste awful to actually work, don't you think?"
"Right, you're absolutely right." Gale let out a strained laugh. It was a clever theory that the worse it tasted, the better it would help.
However, he could not refuse it now. If he did not drink it, she might skewer him with her words. She could also deny everything that happened last night and pretend nothing ever happened.
"If you don't want to drink it, I'll just pour it out." Rain noticed him staring at the mug and decided to take it away.
"I'll drink it." Gale raised his hand to stop her. "It felt a bit too hot earlier, but it should be fine now."
Then, he downed the hangover tea in one go.
Rain raised an eyebrow as she took the empty mug from him. "Is it awful?"
"It's sweet," replied Gale. He was not lying. It was indeed very sweet, and he could not tell how much honey she had added.
It was so sweet that the taste of the vegetables was completely masked.
However, it was still hard to swallow. He forced himself to drink it down without wrinkling his brows.
"Oh, hand me the mug." Rain reached out.
Gale passed her the mug, and as she turned around to leave, he immediately stood up. "Rain, about last night.." "What?" Rain turned around to look at him with a calm expression. For a moment, Gale almost believed that their conversation from last night had been a dream.
"Didn't we open up to each other? Shouldn't we be together?" Gale asked cautiously. It seemed only natural for two people who liked each other to be together, right?
"No," Rain flatly rejected him in an instant.
Gale was startled for a moment. "Huh? Aren't you into me? I like you, so we should..."
"If everyone could just jump into a relationship like you, then why would there be so many single people in the
world?" Rain rolled her eyes. He was such a relationship novice. Did he really think that would make her agree?
In his dreams!
This was her first love and could possibly also be her last. She would not take it so lightly.
"I just don't understand..." Gale felt helpless. They learned many survival skills on the Island of Despair, but they had never been taught anything about relationships.
What was he supposed to do if he liked someone? He needed advice-right now.
"If you don't understand, just ask. If you don't know, leam. Gale, even though I like you, I won't easily agree to be
with you. If you want me to say yes, you'll have to put in some effort.
"If you're not willing to spend that much thought, then your feelings for me are just the words out of your mouth," explained Rain.
Gale clenched his fists. "Just wait. I'll make sure to figure it out."
Then, he dashed upstairs.
Rain was stunned for a moment, then a smile spread across her face. Figure it out, huh?
