Stefan’s words confirmed Renee’s suspicions. He… was really blind. He couldn’t see her, although she was standing right in front of him.
“You must be Seraphina. You’re not saying anything.” Stefan didn’t suspect much and pointed to the chair next to him speaking softly. “The sky must look nice tonight and it’s breezy too. So stay with me for a little.”
“Mhm.” Renee imitated Seraphina’s voice and responded lightly.
Stefan hadn’t noticed anything just yet. Specifically… In his current situation no one was permitted to come near him apart from his mother and Seraphina. Hence he naturally didn’t assume otherwise.
Renee noticed the man looking for something with his hands and could tell that he likely wanted some coffee. She quickly handed him his cup which led to their fingers touching momentarily.
Stefan frowned slightly as if he realized something but merely took a sip from his coffee not saying a word.
The two then continued to sit in silence with Stefan not wanting to speak and Renee not daring to.
The windy night brought them a nice flowery fragrance in the air providing them with an indescribable romantic harmony.
After a long while Stefan spoke up. “Seraphina you know me so well unlike my mother. She was really noisy. And you know that I love hand-ground coffee.”
“I’ll be honest with you I didn’t like coffee before especially at night. Every time I had any I could basically kiss my sleep goodbye. But my ex-wife loved making things like these.
“I don’t know where she got her coffee beans and her coffee machine and I have no idea how she ground them so finely. But the coffee she brewed had some kind of magic spell. I was hooked the moment I took a sip and that’s how I developed my caffeine habit.”
“Mhm.” Renee continued imitating Seraphina’s voice replying dismissively.
This was the first time she realized that the man liked the coffee she had brewed. He had never admitted this to her in the past of course usually complaining about the texture or taste. Sometimes he wouldn’t even visit ninjanovel.com bother to take one glance at it ordering the maids to throw it out instead…
Yet now he was acting like an old man reminiscing about the past over and over again.
‘What a tsundere!’
“I know you must hate her after everything that’s happened and… I know that I should too.” Stefan’s solemn face was plastered with pain. “When I was at my lowest point in life my only wish was to see her. At the brink of death I want nothing else but to hold her hand…”
“But she left me. She didn’t care if I was dead or alive. She was the one who plotted against me but I just… I’m hopeless. I can’t bring myself to hate her even after all this. I’ll forgive her as long as she’s willing to come see me.”
Renee was unable to utter a single word her tears blurring her vision. She couldn’t tell him that she was right in front of him let alone hug him or give him any sort of comfort.
“Do you think she’d come Seraphina?” Stefan turned towards Renee asking desperately.
He then shook his head his gaze turning gloomy. “Forget it. I don’t think she should not with the way I am now. I am useless and she’ll despise me for that. I can’t face her like this.”
“No she won’t!” Renee couldn’t resist any longer and replied loudly.
After that she regretted doing so. Despite her efforts to imitate Seraphina’s voice Stefan was too smart to have not noticed the difference.
