He headed to the bathroom, ignoring her message.
Debbie knew that Carlos wouldn't respond to that kind of flirting, yet that didn't stop her from doing it anyway. She waited and waited for his reply before sighing helplessly.
She sent him another message saying, “Old man, don't get angry. I'm all alone in my apartment while you are with your girlfriend. Alas! I'm so pitiful.”
She waited for a while, but still there was no response. So she added,
“Let's walk our dogs together tomorrow evening. See you." Before she had gone back to Zugrurg, she had sent Harley to a pet shop for fostering. She decided to take it back home after having Lunch with
Curtis and Colleen the next day.
The next morning, she got up early. Carlos used to jog at 6 a.m. every day, but Debbie liked jogging at night. So he had shifted his jogging at night too. ‘Maybe he jogs in the mornings again after he's Lost his memory, ' she thought to herself.
She didn't even wash her face before she went downstairs.
She wandered around and found that a lot of people here jogged in the morning. But still no sight of Carlos. ‘Hmm, so does he jog at night?‘ she thought.
She was just about to turn around and head back home when she spotted a familiar figure. The man was wearing a grey sweatshirt and black shorts. Beads of sweat could be seen rolling down his face like he'd been jogging since 5 a.m.
It was Carlos.

“Old man, what a coincidence!" Debbie greeted him and jogged with him.
Carlos cast a sideways glance at her and said ironically, “It is a coincidence!" She smiled sweetly, completely ignoring the irony in his voice.
“What time did you start jogging? Where's your girlfriend? Isn't she jogging with you? I love jogging too. I can jog with you every morning." Debbie was never good at keeping her feelings to herself.
“I'm good. I don't always stay here." It was James who had insisted that Carlos live with Stephanie. James wanted Carlos and Stephanie to have a baby, and Carlos, for the life of him, couldn't figure out how to turn James down.
During Carlos' first night staying with Stephanie, they had slept in the same bed together. He realized that he wasn't remotely attracted to her-most especially not physically. By midnight, he had already transferred to another room.
Debbie was a little disappointed at Carlos' answer. She then offered,
“Where else do you live then? I can move there."
“East District Manor. So you plan to build a manor there too?" he taunted.
Debbie was silenced. She couldn't afford to build a manor there.
They had already gone around and back twice. Carlos wondered to himself, ‘She seems strong. We've probably already run a thousand meters and she doesn't even look tired."
"Old man, why are you jogging? To Lose weight?" she asked.
“No," he answered coldly.
“Then you must want to be fit." She approached him and said excitedly,
