Chapter Two
"Get in the car."
"Um, I'll catch a ride instead, I actually have some other things to take care of." Aurelia Wood refused, she really didn't know how to face Kevin Gregory's feelings.
Refusal means facing loss...
But she couldn't agree either.
So the only thing she could do was to avoid.
Kevin Gregory frowned and said somewhat self-deprecatingly, "What do you need to do? I'll take you there."
"Really no need."
She smiled, but her smile seemed so unfamiliar.
He wished she could ask him to do things for her like she used to, without hesitation.
If it was before, she would have gotten in the car without a hitch and told him where to take her as if he was her chauffeur.
That kind of Aurelia, he was more accustomed to.
But now...
She was clearly trying to distance herself from him.
Kevin Gregory felt a little stifled.
He asked bitterly, "Are you really that afraid of me?"
