Clara, slightly puzzled, looked towards Anders, who stood not far off. He was dressed to the nines today, in a sharp light grey suit with a dark tie, his gaze tender and longing as he looked her way Even if Clara was clueless about most things, she knew exactly what was happening now, Ever since she had agreed to be with Anders, she had not seen him again.
