Chapter 422: The Story of a Boy Becoming a Man (Part II)
Los Angeles is not the place I imagined to be a place where I could meet cute girls at any time.
To make matters worse, I didn't have any opportunities to meet girls in my work environment.
In the legal world, it seems that there will always be a man.
Luckily, in my internship law firm, I met a young man named Roy.
Although I felt that he was a little silly and a little unreliable, we quickly became a good pair.
The only thing that makes me feel bad is that after living in the city for more than 6 months, there is still only one Roy by my side.
But one unexpected evening, I had dinner with this unreliable Roy, and something magical happened suddenly.
In a special dining room in total darkness, they sat at a table with two girls.
I had a great conversation with one of the girls, and I stupidly fed a cake to her eyes in the dark......
But after dinner, we walked outside the restaurant, and I finally saw the girl who had been sitting next to me.
Her name is Mary, and from the outside, she is the kind of ordinary, a little literary and artistic, and her appearance is pure and cute, but she is not sexy or amazing.
Not as beautiful as my first love goddess.
But I don't know why, but I found that my heart was throbbing like never before.
Even more heartwarming and joyful than when I first met the girl I first loved, Charlotte.
Looking at Mary's rustic bangs, looking at her dresses that are not sexy and not trendy.
And when she speaks, she is a little shy and timid, and she doesn't even dare to look at you directly.
I felt like my heart was drunk.
I asked Mary for her phone number.
I felt like I might have really fallen in love with this girl.
……
It's a pity that fate makes people.
But when I got home, the landlord, Uncle Harry, was drinking heavily.
He's been writing a script for ten years, and it's been put on stage tonight.
But what broke him down was that one of the important actors forgot his lines during the performance.
It's enough to make a good stage play a complete failure.
I looked at his helpless, painful, and desperate look, and I couldn't bear to see his hard work in vain.
I had to run into the closet of my room, and once again use my superpowers to travel to the beginning of the stage play, reminding the actor who had forgotten his lines to take a serious look at them.
The performance started relatively smoothly, and the actor who forgot his lines finally said his lines.
But what made people collapse was that another actor forgot his lines again at this time.
I had to travel back in time again and give the actor a hint of the line.
The stage show was a great success.
But when I took out my phone and searched for the number named Mary, it was empty.
Because I didn't go to that dark restaurant to eat after I traveled back in time, and I certainly didn't meet Mary, let alone ask her for a phone call.
I completely lost the way I connected with the girl I loved.
In a big city like Los Angeles, trying to find someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
……
Just when I was desperate, Heaven finally gave me a chance to find her again.
When she was having dinner with the girl in the restaurant that day, she once mentioned that she liked the work of a pioneering female designer the most.
And this female designer happened to have an exhibition in Los Angeles this week.
I had no choice but to wait for the day at the exhibition.
The hard work paid off, and I finally saw the girl I liked at the exhibition.
Through the convenience of traveling through time and space again and again, I got the opportunity to get close to girls.
But what broke me down was that the girl at this time had already found a boyfriend.
What made me even more devastating was that the time she met this man happened to be the night after the success of the stage play.
Because I helped the landlord, I turned the girl I liked into someone else's girlfriend.
Luckily, I was able to travel through time, so it wasn't too late.
Desperately rushing into the bathroom, I reclocked the clock again to before Mary and the man had met.
At a boring party, I found Mary who was bored standing on the balcony.
I shamelessly took advantage of what I knew about her, and quickly gained her favor.
Pulled her out of the party and took her for a warm and ordinary dinner.
The more two people talked, the more they felt as if they had known each other for a long time.
It was a very amazing feeling, and I looked at this girl as if I saw my future life.
It's not a superpower that travels through time, it's an illusion when love comes.
That night, we let each other go in her home.
Although it was the first time I had done this kind of thing, my performance was not as good as I could have been.
But luckily, I had countless opportunities to repeat the trial.
Finally, the two of us, who are more clumsy in terms of harmony, also had the happiest experience.
From that day on, Mary and I had all kinds of happy days.
When we go on a date, we probably don't go to a fancy Michelin-starred restaurant.
Or spend a few hours getting a delicate makeup, donning an expensive gown, and eating a French meal that makes your stomach uncomfortable.
But we enjoyed our time with each other so much.
Finally, we also reached the stage of seeing each other's parents.
Not long after I met her parents, I met Charlotte, the goddess of first love, again while watching a stage play with my friend Roy.
Over the years, Charlotte and I have changed a lot.
We had dinner together.
During the meal, Charlotte told me that if time could be reversed, she might not have rejected my confession that summer.
To be honest, when I heard this, my heart skipped a beat.
After dinner, Charlotte offered me to take her home, and I didn't refuse.
As I stood at the door of her room, the former girl invited me to join her.
But at this time, I realized that the throbbing of my first love had already become a beautiful and distant memory.
Now the only person I really love is Mary, the silly girl who depends on me for her life.
I was finally sure that I would never be able to leave this girl named Mary again in my life.
So, I told Charlotte very apologetically.
Tonight was a fantastic night, but I still have important things to do.
With that, I turned and left Charlotte.
Rush back to my and Mary's quarters.
At this time, Mary was lying on the bed in the bedroom in a daze.
I hired a band to play this romantic music in the living room.
I walked slowly over to Mary and got down on one knee at the head of the bed.
Look at this lovely girl seriously and gently wake her up from her sleep.
Mary was dazed by the romantic music and saw me on one knee, so she guessed if I was too bored to play a marriage proposal game.
She's joking, but I'm very serious.
I told her, yes, I'm just going to propose to you. Will you marry me?
I waited in fear for the girl's answer, and I felt like my heart would die if she rejected me.
Without making me wait long, Mary was quick to agree to my proposal.
She also thanked me for not proposing to her on a high-profile occasion because she liked this kind of proposal where only two people in love were present.
I was so excited that I almost cried.
Let Mary continue to sleep, then quietly go to the living room, and let the band members quietly leave the house.
The marriage proposal of only two people finally came true.
And I also know that I will no longer be a boy without family responsibilities, and I will become a real man from now on.
