If there was a calendar, Linda would probably say a week or so had passed.
It was supposed to pass so quickly but it felt slow for her. Obviously because she hadn't seen Gaffer after that incident.
Well, as much as Linda felt relieved about it, knowing she can't face him after hopping off like that, she was also sad. So so sad.
"He wouldn't even come to say 'good luck on your second round today'? Hhh, maybe he's mad or disgusted at me."
She missed his company, his warmth, his strong scent like fresh breeze. She missed his voice. She missed him so much.
This made Linda not only feel a sense of longing, it assured her that she was indeed in love with him.
All she did as time passed was talk to her system about her status or upgrade. She had learnt that she had just 15% EXP, and aside from that, nothing had changed.
She also had a soothing touch skill that was locked. It could only ever be unlocked when her EXP got to 50%.
