Aside from that, someone also kept sending me flowers and snacks every once in a while. I'd also get text messages from an unknown number asking me if I was well.Even though the items were sent anonymously and I never actually saw the person, I knew that it had to be Austin.This was the first time someone had ever shown so much care and concern toward me, and it stirred up a warm feeling inside my heart.Eventually, I stopped resisting him and just accepted his goodwill. In fact, I found myself looking forward to it at times.Yet, I never took it a step further with him.One day, Austin came waiting at the ground floor of my apartment with a bouquet of flowers in his hand.I went down to meet him and took the flowers from his hand like I was already used to it.
