"Except that one."
I admitted the truth while avoiding her gaze.
"But I think I made the right decision now. Although I'm sure you could've solved it on your own, I still couldn't leave you in danger. And... The things that transpired afterward weren't intentional. I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable. If I did, I sincerely apologize." I bowed my head sincerely.
"Exactly which one are you talking about?" Cassandra coldly stared at me, her eyes squinting. I almost flinched under her 'death' stare. "Could it be... the honey one?"
Gulp.
She remembers it, no, she remembers everything!
"...I wasn't lying, I swear." I quickly tried to defend myself. "I meant what I said!"
"...You-!"
Huh?
I took a peek at Cassandra and saw a faint blush spreading across her cheeks.
Urgh! Wrong choice of words!
I panicked internally as I realized how my hasty defense had sounded.
