The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Beatrice immediately grasped Melody's gripe. Thalia's presence in the house did not bother Melody much-it was Lucas' lack of consideration in neglecting her feelings that did not sit well with her. Furthermore, Thalia's several years' worth of friendship with Lucas dampened Melody's confidence in herself and her connection with Lucas.
"I understand where you're coming from, but I was the one who told Lucas not to tell you, and I apologize for that. I won't deny that he has some history with Thalia, but it's only because certain things happened in the past, and it was because of Thalia that he is safe and sound now. This was why he's been very attentive to her. Thalia had a sister, and before she passed away, she had requested Lucas to take good care of Thalia," Beatrice said.
Following a pause, she continued, "That being said, I'd still like to reassure you that there's nothing going on between them. If there was, it would've materialized into a concrete relationship before you showed up."
Beatrice knew her grandson well. He was not a coward, and he would have confessed to Thalia long ago if he truly had any feelings for her.
However, Melody did not anticipate that there would be such a connection between Lucas and Thalia. Melody smiled bitterly as she heard the explanation. She would have felt relieved after hearing that statement if she and Lucas were genuinely married, which they were not. She also wondered why Lucas did not ask Thalia to help resolve the misgivings and reassure his grandparents.
There were times when the situation might not be as clear-cut as Melody thought it should be. For example, Beatrice opined that no one-not even Thalia-could ever come between Melody and Lucas after observing their interactions. Yet Melody and Lucas remained in the dark and were not able to discern each other's true feelings.
Nevertheless, Beatrice was sure that true love existed between them, and that time would eventually unveil the truth.
"Don't worry. I can see that Lucas cares about you more," Beatrice assured.
Despite the genuineness of those words, Melody felt like Beatrice was merely trying to console her. She smiled and replied, "Please don't worry too much about Lucas and me. We're mature enough to handle things."

think that they understand com everything, but some things become clearer only when you've experienced them. I'm worried that your stubborn personalities might lead to more misunderstandings. Please promise me that you'll give Lucas a chance to explain whenever he makes a mistake in the future." Melody asked, "May I ask why?" Visit
