Since her parents passed away, Scarlett had never eaten cotton candy.
Scarlett didn't like cotton candy, but when his father gave her cotton candy with an expectant and happy look, she felt that cotton candy were not that bad. She could eat them once a week.
After many years, the person who bought her cotton candy had left her forever.
"What are you looking at?" Aware that Scarlett was absent-minded, Raymond couldn't help asking.

He found that Scarlett was staring at a cotton candy machine in front of a snack bar.
"Do you want to eat cotton candy?" Scarlett came out of her trance, withdrew her eyes, and glanced at Raymond with a smile. "Are you going to buy me some?" It was the first time she had asked Raymond for something. Seeing Scarlett's dazzling smile, he overflowed with tenderness.
"Yes." Even if Scarlett wanted that snack bar, he would buy it for her.
Yet the street was crowded. A long line of people were queuing for cotton candy outside the snack bar.
Raymond didn't want Scarlett to stand there. He took Scarlett into a cafe and said," Wait here. I'll buy you the cotton candy." "Okay." Scarlett didn't stop Raymond because he looked delighted.
The cafe was almost opposite the snack bar. Raymond could see Scarlett sitting there.
Scarlett could also see him standing in line.
Raymond picked a nice place for her.
Today was Couple's Day. There were a sea of people on the streets. Even the cafe was full.

Scarlett sat at a table for four. Feeling awkward, she ordered a piece of cake and a cup of coffee.
It was hot outside. The cafe had air-conditioning and many seats. Thus, a lot of people came in to rest.
There were no more tables for the people arriving later, so they were looking for empty seats.
A couple asked Scarlett if they could share her table. Scarlett smiled, moved her plate, and answered, "No problem." Looking at Scarlett's pretty face, the girl was excited. "Miss, are you waiting for your boyfriend?" The girl thought such a good-looking woman must have a very handsome boyfriend.
Scarlett nodded with a smile but didn't say anything.
