Chapter 1680 Setting the record straight
“How do you know he doesn’t have a girlfriend? Nothing is out of the question.
“Absolutely not.” Angelica shook her head with sincere certainty.
The duo of Michela and Genara approached her, one of them with an arm around her. – Why so much confidence? Did she tell you? Do not believe every word, even if he confessed to you personally, it is not necessarily true.
” This is exactly what we tell you from experience. ”
Angelica curled her lips, ” – Everything is different here. I know it’s not, I believe him.
With that Angelica went directly to the bathroom and closed the door, shutting out the noise of the two.
He stood for a long time in front of the mirror, looking at his reflection. Blinking slightly on her cheek, she asked herself, “Why?” Angelica considered herself spineless AND weak-willed. The reason for this was that she was ready to forgive and forget all the bitterness Manuel had brought her after she confessed her feelings.
Manuel was afraid of frightening Angelica with his excessive revelation, so he said nothing about how much he loved her. These touching words did not leave her mind.
As she moved further and further away from Manuel that evening, she could barely contain her emotional impulses, the desire to turn and run into his arms overcame her.
“Enough is enough, no need to think about it. – Angelica threw away all her thoughts, took a shower, then went to rest.

The next day, Angelica met Lorello by chance. She felt extremely uncomfortable in front of him because of yesterday’s events. The girl pretended not to notice him and headed in the opposite direction.
Angelica, Lorello called her.
Meeting face to face was inevitable, Angelica had no choice, she turned around.
“Lorello.”
“- Did you see me and run away right away? Did I scare you with something?” Lorello approached her and looked at her helplessly.
“Sorry, I’m just …”
“- All right, there is no need to explain. Tell me, the guy who came yesterday, is there something between you? – Lorello didn’t bother to circle, he asked directly.
At those words, Angelica’s ears reddened and she , wanted to involuntarily deny their connection, but Lorello was in front of her, “No need to rush to deny it, it’s obvious.” Lorello smiled slightly, “And you have a very close relationship, don’t you?”
Angelica had nothing to say in response; she stood in front of him, making no sound.
– If you love, don’t lose your happiness. You and I can only be friends. Also, if you need help, feel free to ask. Don’t be shy.
With these words, Lorello left.
Angelica breathed a sigh of relief, the weight of her shoulders instantly lowered, which she was very happy about. Angelica believed that it would be much more difficult to solve the problem with Lorello, however, he behaved like a true gentleman, without a drop of pressure and reproach.
Angelica could not concentrate on her studies; Manuel’s confessions confused her. Depressed mood, depressed mental state – everything affected the study.
With difficulty waiting for the end of classes, she went to meet Genara and Michela, who were waiting for her at the campus exit . The three were about to go shopping, buying new clothes.
At the main gate, the friends noticed a tall, stately young man, standing out from the crowd, it was hard not to notice him.
Angelica, not noticing nothing and no one around, thoughtfully walked with her head down.
She came to herself only when the girls stopped.
– What’s the problem? Have you changed your mind about going shopping?
Genara and Michela looked at her, had a confused look: -They are waiting for you here, what purchases?
Who is waiting?
Angelica looked ahead, saw a familiar silhouette.
Manuel? Why is he here again?
“Looks like shopping is cancelled today, go early.”
Genara pushed Angelica, who took two steps forward and was pulled back by Michela, “- Wait, I’ll give you some advice. Be a little bold, you said yesterday that he is free, so you should make a little effort and he is yours.
Mine?
Angelica blinked with naive, thoughtless eyes.
– Go, go. I hope everything works out.
Angelica , embarrassed was still standing still.
Manuel, seeing her, waved his hand and waited for her to come to him.
Genara and Michela, holding hands, left their friend and left.
Angelica shyly approached Manuel, cupping his tender pink lips, and said, -You said you would wait for me to think, didn’t you?
– Yes, – Manuel nodded his head, seeing some doubt in the girl’s eyes, he asked. – Did something happen?”
– Since you said you would wait, why did you come today?
Angelica thought to herself, “Didn’t she think she would get an answer today?” Of course, for her the answer was obvious, but Angelica, she didn’t want to say it now so as not to make things too easy for Manuel.
At her words, Manuel took a step forward.
“What is the problem? How does this conflict with my coming today?”
Angelica, stepping back a bit, almost fell, fortunately, Manuel was able to support her.
– Why can’t you stand? Didn’t you sleep at night?
Angelica gritted her teeth, “You are the one who did not sleep well, I have a good sleep.”
Manuel looked at the greenish-black circles under his eyes and smiled, “Well, I didn’t sleep well, you slept well, so shall we go to dinner?”
“Who wants to have dinner with you?” Angelica murmured.
“You don’t want to have dinner with me, do you have a date with that guy?
“No!”
“Otherwise, come with me.”
Manuel took her hand and led her forward. Angelica did not resist; she followed him.
Manuel walked quickly with large, wide strides, Angelica could barely keep up with him, moving her legs. After a while, he finally slowed down, Angelica took a breath.
Manuel started coming to school every day at the same time, they went to dinner together, spent time, but she did not talk about her decision. As day after day passed, it seemed that Manuel was calm, only Angelica was tormented by inner disturbances and experiences.
Every time they met, she was afraid to hear this question, but he never once asked it.
A week later, Manuel asked, -It’s been so long, you still haven’t decided?
Angelica, pursing her lips, said, – Didn’t we come to eat? Let’s have dinner first.
The joint daily pastime became a habit, Angelica believed that everything was already obvious. Could she reject it? For example, she did not want to see Lorello at all, so she avoided meetings with him in every possible way. With Manuel, it was different, she felt good around him.
They walked a few meters, Manuel took Angelica by the wrist – First I want to hear the answer, then we’ll go to dinner.
