NovelEndChapter 39 I felt embarrassed by the realization that I was crying, so I quickly wiped my tears away.
Seeinglike this, Selena finally sighed in relief. She untied her harness and cover to take my hand. "Since you're so scared, let's skip the bungee jump. We can do something else instead." According to the policy of the amusement park, the bungee jump fee wouldn't be refunded since I backed out halfway.
