The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2656

When it reached the midpoint of the movie, Melody even heard some girls crying in the back row. Her eyes turned red, too. After all, the audience's reaction was the best feedback for them as actors.

While watching the movie, she felt like she had turned back into that girl who used to wake up on a bed far from home. In this unfamiliar world, the only person she could rely on was a 'foreigner'.

Maybe she really did love him, or maybe she was just afraid of being abandoned. In any case, Athena's affection toward Dieter only grew stronger, but he had his own social circle, a life. He did not like her clinging to him.

In the small fishing village devoid of any entertainment, he enjoyed going up the mountains and down to the sea with her. In the big city, however, Athena's clinginess became a burden to him.

Everything was so sweet when the two of them first left the small fishing village, and they were in their honeymoon period. As time passed, the first argument erupted between them.

Dieter did not understand why Athena would always ask where he was going or when he would be back. He felt like he had lost his freedom. It got so bad that he thought, 'If taking Athena out of that destitute fishing village meant trouble for myself, then maybe we should just end our relationship.'

Athena did not understand what she did wrong. She just wanted to know when he would come back. What was so wrong with that?

She desperately needed his company in the lonely rented house. She missed her hometown so much and wanted to go back to Hailey's side. However, she had a falling out with Hailey when she decided to leave the small fishing village.

"Did you forget what you said to me at the beach? Did you forget what you said when you confessed your feelings to me? Were they all lies?"

They had snuck out together. Athena could go back because she belonged to that village, but he could not show his face again. He had secretly taken her out, breaking the taboo of the village. He would surely be beaten to a pulp if he dared to appear in that village again. He was not that stupid.

"If you want to go back, then go by yourself. I'm not going back to that backwater place," he replied.

This was the first time Athena got angry at him. She slapped him hard across the cheek. "That's not a backwater place! It's my hometown, where I was born and raised!"

"If you love your hometown so much, why did you want to leave so badly in the first place?"
