Love. It doesn't matter your gender, or how much money you have in your pocket, it doesn't even matter your age, that's what they say. You and Roger are proof of the latter.
They both had a different age difference, still, the love was there. But always, always, even if there are people who deny it, there will be rumors: 'Why are they together?' 'I'm sure he's doing it for money' 'She's a girl, she'll get over it' 'I'm sure he's only using her for money' 'She's beautiful, that's what they're good for'. But in the end they'll end up like everyone else. Who knows? The only thing we can do is ignore it. You did that, without giving importance to those rumors.
But.. And Roger? Of course he wasn't going to let that get to him, but those thoughts kept running through his head.
He was sitting on the couch listening to television and reading a newspaper, this time a little calmer as he noticed that there were no rumors about him, but that didn't mean he had forgotten.
