Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After a short while, a hoarse female voice abruptly rang out. “Damn you, Luke! So, you actually weren’t sick? You lied to and left alone at the prom? Damn you!”
Then, a strong tornado streaked over.
Luke turned around, and the first thing he saw was an incoming foot.
He lunged forward on reflex and blocked the incoming leg with his shoulder. His arms stretched out in a well-practiced manner, and a lively and flexible body fell into his embrace.
With a smile on his face, he said, “Oh, Jina, it’s so good to see you again.”
The girl in his arms was currently in a standing split position, and her black underwear could be vaguely seen at the bottom of her ripped, denim shorts.
She didn’t seem to pay any heed to the highly difficult pose she was standing in. Rather, with fury on her face, she bellowed, “Damn it! Let go of ! I need to kill you! Bastard, you ruined my beautiful senior high mory and left on my own at my graduation prom! You even got Claire to lie for you that you were hospitalized? And when I went there the other night, you even pretended to be asleep? Look at you! Do you look like soone who was hospitalized recently?”
Luke didn’t get agitated. The girl still in his embrace, he gently stroked her back and said, “Jina, I wasn’t lying. You know . I don’t like lying. If you can give two minutes, I’ll definitely allay your anger.”
At that, the young lady called Jina seed to calm down significantly as she looked at him doubtfully and asked, “Really?”
Luke replied with a smile, “Of course! Or do you think you’re scarier than that female pig? I won’t lie even when facing that sow.”
“Bastard! I’m no pig!” Jina burst out laughing before she continued, “I’ll give you two minutes. Hey, what are you waiting for? Let go of my leg!”
Luke smiled and released her leg, allowing the long and slender leg to slide off his shoulder back to the ground. Then, with his arm around her, they sat down in front of the building.
“I didn’t tell Claire to lie for . I was discharged at ten this morning. I think you just need to ask any doctor there and you’ll have the full story, right?” Luke explained calmly.
Jina countered, “Then what are you doing being so free and sitting here? Why didn’t you give a call?”
Luke shrugged. “I just woke up this morning and had to imdiately go back to let Catherine have a good look at . I couldn’t let her continue worrying, right? Next, Robert brought here to sign up at the departnt. I just finished the process, and it hasn’t even been five minutes since. I wasn’t able to call you before you got here yourself.”
Jina blanked out. “Sign up?”
Luke nodded. “Yes, just now, in fact. I’m officially an officer of the departnt. I’ll start work in a few days.”
Jina was in disbelief. “I thought you said before that you would go to either Dallas or Houston to further your studies? Why did you change your mind? Is it because of Catherine and the others...”
“No!” Luke interrupted her and explained, “I rely ca to realize sothing. Actually, Robert already ntioned to about being a police officer a few days ago. I was just thinking it over.”
Jina sank into a long silence before saying, “Then... good luck to you, I guess.”
Luke smiled and said, “Don’t be too sad. A beautiful future still awaits us. It’s not like I’m planning to stay a cop here forever.”
Jina forced a smile, but her heart was assailed with sadness.
Her feelings were extrely complicated right now.
Jina was Luke’s girlfriend.
They were both students of Knox High, and both graduated this year.
As for how their relationship started, Jina was the one who pursued Luke.
This was a story that started with a hero’s semi-successful attempt to rescue a beauty.
A group of high school students once decided to go camping. That was when the two t each other. However, they still weren’t particularly close at the ti.
During the camping trip, Jina encountered a wild boar.
At that ti, Jina was frightened and started shouting for help. Luke, who was the nearest to her, arrived first. Then, in a head-on confrontation, he stood in front of the wild boar, which also seed to hesitate. He protected Jina behind him as they slowly backed away.
Ultimately, the other people on the trip arrived, and an adult with a rifle shot the wild boar down.
In truth, that wild boar wasn’t particularly big. And at that ti, the boar was slightly frightened by Jina’s shout as well. That was why it hadn’t attacked her imdiately.
Strictly speaking, the one who had rescued Jina was the adult with a rifle, not Luke.
But after the two got into a relationship, Jina said that when Luke arrived and protected her behind him without hesitation, she saw that as a symbol of valor.
If it was any other person, they would have directly fled when they saw the wild boar. Or they might have stopped running and started shouting as well. That was what most people would have done. At the ti, Luke only had on him a knife which he sliced beef with; it was impossible for him to be able to do anything to the boar with that knife.
What could Luke say? Should he tell her that he was already used to seeing wild boars on his maternal grandpa’s ranch, and was thus unafraid? Should he also tell her that he in fact knew the temperant of wild boars very well?
If he hadn’t protected Jina, and had allowed her to continue shouting, the wild boar would most likely have gotten so annoyed by her loud voice that it might have actually decided to attack.
And that wild boar wasn’t too big anyway. At the sa ti, it was rather timid. Sure, to do what Luke did required so courage, but all along he had been sure his life wasn’t in danger.
And after that incident, Jina started pursuing Luke.
Jina was an above-average beauty, and that was only because Luke had different taste compared with the locals here. For a regular person, she was definitely a great beauty.
She had long legs, a slender waist, and a curvy bottom. Sure, her chest wasn’t too bountiful, but her figure was still outstanding as a whole. Coupled with her healthy tan and an athletic body that was the product of constant exercise, she was definitely an athletic-style great beauty.
As a Latina, Jina was a very passionate young lady, and when she started chasing Luke, she had done so openly.
And Luke was a normal and healthy man. Although he had lived up to 30 years old in his previous life, and had also had a few girlfriends back then, he had never seen such a powerful attack from a woman before.
At that ti, Luke had been in tenth grade and still single.
Luke was about 60 to 70 percent similar to Catherine in appearance: they looked unremarkable at first, but the longer you looked at them, the more you felt that they were incredibly pleasing to the eye.
Luke was a high school kid that had decent looks, a decent build, and a decent character, yet had been single all this ti.
In the United States, a man in this situation would very commonly be misunderstood as soone with different preferences, i.e. a man who didn’t prefer won.
In truth, although Luke had lived up to 30 years old in his previous life, he wasn’t too good at chasing soone. That, coupled with certain habits of his that were completely out of the norm compared with ordinary Arican students, had caused him to remain single all this ti.
Suddenly, a great beauty appeared to pursue him. He couldn’t resist the attack by the beautiful and passionate Latina, and soon, he accepted her and beca her boyfriend.
Only then was Luke free of the rumors swirling around in school about his s*xual preference, and people no longer talked about him behind his back.
But in truth, his and Jina’s relationship had formally ended after the prom the day before.
