When I looked up again, Boris had already put away his phone and continued talking to my brother.
The girl next to him greeted Galen gracefully, and then her eyes fell on me, which were very gentle.
"Who are you?"
Boris' eyes flickered, and he said vaguely, "She is the girl I told you about, remember?"
Afraid that Sasha would overthink, he continued to explain, "She is crybaby and clingy. At a young age, Galen and I did many stupid things to get rid of her."
Sasha seemed to have thought of something, and then she covered her mouth and chuckled, "You are so mean. You made her stutter for so long, and you still have the nerve to badmouth her."
I always kept Boris at arm's length, especially when I was a child, he made me a stutterer just to play with my brother.
Even after I was admitted to his university, I did not change my mind.
Yet, it seemed like that he didn't think so.
He used to ask Galen to take me out to play.
He always brought everything such as snacks, drinks, and bags to me.
Even if I refused, he still kept going.
On one occasion, I got drunk at a classmate's birthday party, and Galen had something to do, so he asked Boris to pick me up.
Pushing his hand away, I staggered forward but still remembered to keep my distance. Just as I was about to reach out to hail a taxi, he pulled me back.
He sighed helplessly. "You still hold a grudge."
Boris did not give up. He ruffled my hair and spoke in a doting tone.
"Be my girlfriend and I'll let you get revenge."
My mind, which was in turmoil, suddenly became clear. Boris was afraid that I would shake my head, so he held my cheek with his hands.
"Since you've rejected my gifts so many times, you can't reject me this time."
I blushed and nodded for no reason.
He would accompany me to evening studies and the library, and bring me sugar water when I was not feeling well. All in all, he was very attentive.
Galen often complained to me.
"Mina, Boris must have a girlfriend. You don't know how often he has been out recently.
"It's unfair. We said we'd be single together, but he has a girlfriend first."
I couldn't control my blushing and my heartbeat, and I didn't dare look Galen in the eyes.
While chatting with Boris in the evening, I discussed how to confess to Galen.
He sighed pretentiously. "Hey, I can already imagine the day when your brother beats me.
"But it doesn't matter. It's my fault for dating his sister. I'm happy with it."
