329 Marcus On the Move

The last romantic song ended and the band played a lively party song for Disco. Matthew and Sophia were still on the dance floor when Marcus approached them.

"May I have my date now?" Marcus said, extending his hand to Sophia.

Matthew looked at him with complicated emotions on his face. He was reluctant to let go of Sophia. But he had no choice. Marcus was Sophia's date tonight. He just borrowed her time.

Taking a deep breath, Matthew shifted his gaze from Marcus back to Sophia.

"Thank you for this dance. May you enjoy the rest of the night," Matthew softly said to Sophia, patting her head.

He gave her a gentle smile before allowing Marcus to guide her out of the dance floor. Matthew sighed deeply seeing Sophia and Marcus walking away from his spot.
