“Mr. Fay, if you don’t have anything else, then we’ll part ways here,” I said, slow and low.
I got up from my seat, suppressing the urge to run away from him. But it seemed that my intention was apparent on my face as Cain motioned to the sofa. “I’m not in a hurry, sit.”
Maybe you’re not! But I’ am!
I obediently sat down, staring at my fingers on top of my lap, didn’t want him to see my distorted face.
I sensed his penetrating stare, which made me fumbled my fingers. And after a period of silence, I heard him sighed. “You’re scared of me.”
I meet his gaze. “There’s probably not a single person who isn’t scared of you, right?”
Cain raised an eyebrow. “So you’re afraid of me because others are?”
I breathed hard through my mouth. “I’m afraid because of your different attitude towards me, I’ll start to imagine feelings when there aren’t any,” I said straight to his face, not minding my shaking legs.
Cain held his chin in a laid back manner. “How are you so sure there aren’t any feelings?”
I held my forehead. I felt a headache coming.
“We just met yesterday,” I said, voice forceful.
“So?”
“Y-you . . . You don’t even know me.”
“That’s why we are getting to know each other now.”
I felt I couldn’t communicate any further with him and blurted out, “What is your intention?!”
