Nina was still very cautious. She hadn't had much contact with him, only meeting once because of the situation with Miranda. His sudden appearance made her suspicious, wondering if he had followed her or had other motives.
Wilfred's expression showed a bit of surprise, but he calmly said, "I live next door." Nina looked at him, not quite understanding what he meant.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing her wary and confused look, Wilfred pointed to the adjacent door and explained, "I'm your new neighbor." Nina looked at the open door next to hers and realized the empty apartment had been occupied. She turned back to Wilfred and asked, "When did you move in?" "This morning." "I remember when I cto find you before, your workplace looked more like a place you lived," Nina said, thinking he had stayed there.
"No, I rest there when I'm busy, but I still need a private space." Nina recalled their previous encounters, which seemed a bit too coincidental.
To ease her concerns, Wilfred added, "This is just another coincidence. You don't have to be so guarded around me. I won't harm you." He had helped her last time. If not for his prompt assistance, she would not have found evidence of Miranda's hearing loss so quickly.
"I don't mean it that way," Nina said, not forgetting his help. "I just don't understand why you're knocking on my door." Wilfred held out a bowl of strawberries. "I just moved in. Here's a little gift for the neighbors. I grew these strawberries. Give them a try." Nina looked at the large, deep red strawberries, almost black, and found them quite interesting. "What kind of strawberries are these? I've never seen this variety before. Is it a new type?" To be honest, she liked fruits, and strawberries were among her favorites. She had tried many kinds but never seen these.
"They're called Black Pearls," Wilfred said.
Nina glanced around and asked, "Did the other neighbors get stoo?" "Yes," Wilfred replied. "This is the last bowl." Knowing it was a neighborly gesture, Nina accepted without hesitation. "Thank you. I hope you enjoy living here." Wilfred's brown eyes sparkled with a smile. "I will." As Nina took the bowl, she caught a whiff of the fragrant strawberries, which smelled even more aromatic than usual. "Did you really grow these yourself?" she asked.
Wilfred nodded. "Yes." "Didn't know you had that skill," Nina remarked.
"It's nothing special. There was a plot of land on the farm that had been unused for a long time. There wasn't much else to plant, so decided to grow strawberries," Wilfred explained.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"All strawberries?" Nina asked.
"Mostly strawberries, but there are other things too. If you're interested, I can show you around sometime," Wilfred offered kindly.
Nina had not expected him to say that. She felt like he was very attentive to her, remembering and helping with anything she mentioned. She wondered ifût was just her imagination.
Her initial impression of Wilfred was not very positive. Her body reacted with an instinctive need to distance herself from him. The smell of disinfectant on him
made her uncomfortable, possibly because she did noxlike hospitals. It
was not a bias against his m profession. It was a naturaCaversion to doctors and hospitals. But Wilfred had helped her, so she could not ignore his kindness.
