"Uhm… i-If you're hungry, then I can make something for us. I can find some meat and cook it or..."
Jason shook his head and told Riyala that it was fine. It was late, so there wouldn't even be any open stores and they didn't have any food at home. They would just have to wait till tomorrow to get something to eat. Riyala nodded slowly as she accepted Jason's words and seemed to be thinking of another excuse to use before a mental image of Gina passed through her mind all of a sudden. Riyala had no idea why she had that thought, but she suddenly had an intense feeling of guilt in her heart as she squeezed her hands tightly. Riyala had been trying to deny it all this time, but she could no longer lie to herself.
'I'm falling in love with Jason. How could I do this to Gina? Gina isn't here anymore, and I'm trying to force myself on him when he is so vulnerable. What am I doing?'
