Unrepairable Love
Chapter 309
Elizabeth hadn’t hit up a movie in forever; last time was when
agged a role in one.
Today’s flick was a rom–com, and the place was packed with lovey–depy couples.
Elizabeth and Joseph snagged seats in the back row. Right next to them, a couple was all over each other.
“I know akiller rooftop spot. Wanna check it out after the movie? Joseph leaned in close.
Elizabeth nodded. “Sure thing.
Joseph grinned. “Sweet,”
Elizabeth couldn’t
help but steal a glance at Joseph,
Joseph was a total sweetheart. But she just wasn’t feeling that spark
It didn’t seem fair to keep stringing Joseph along.
Elizabeth sighed. She tried to chill and not overthink it. But halfway through the movie, things got steamy on screen, and the theater vibe followed suit.
She could actually hear the couple next to her making out.
Elizabeth bit her lip and peeked to her right. Yep, they were going at it.
She stuffed some snacks in her mouth. When she looked forward again, she spotted another couple smooching in the far right
comer.
Elizabeth rolled her eyes and mused, Man, my eyesight is too good!
“I haven’t been to the movies in ages. Is it always like this now?” Elizabeth whispered to Joseph.
Joseph looked a bit awkward. “Honestly, I haven’t been to the n
movies in a long time either.”
They shared a look and burst out laughing.
“Suddenly, I feel like I don’t get romance anymore,” Elizabeth sighed.
“Elizabeth, you gotta love yourself first. Romance or not, it’s all about how you see it,” Joseph said gently.
Elizabeth found herself staring into Joseph’s eyes.
In the dim theater, Joseph’s eyes were fi
full of patience and affection,
Joseph’s so steady and sweet. But why don’t I feel that spark?‘ she wondered.
“Did you hear me?” Joseph asked.
Elizabeth upiled at lumn. “Yeah, I did,”
Joseph was right; romaner was all about perspective.

Like the couple next to them: If you looked at it weirdly, it was award. But with a softer eye, it was just young love.
Watching a movie and making out in the theater–wasn’t that kinda brave and romantic?
“Thanks. I learned a lot,” Elizabeth told Joseph.
Joseph smiled.
After the movie, they headed to the rooftop restaurant Joseph had mentioned.
The place was in the heart of the city, right by the river. The view was lit, with cruise ships gliding by.
It was Elizabeth’s first time there, and she was pretty impressed.
They took the elevator up to the rooftop terrace.
“Is this place always this romantic? Elizabeth asked, a bit puzzled.
She held her limited edition bag in one hand and touched a fresh rose on the railing with the other.
“This decor,” Joseph was also surprised.
Usually, the place had a chill, green vibe. But today, it was decked out with flowers, balloons, and streamers.
What was up?
A waiter led them to their seats. Joseph asked, “Why’s the decor so fancy today? Something special going on?”
The waiter grinned. “Someone’s proposing tonight.”
