Unwelcomed Guest

Present time.

Just as she thought that this feeling is what she really wanted, what she really needed. A stirring confusion was building in her thoughts, in her emotions. 

When they parted their lips, she placed her face in her palms. Yhuan immediately knew what was wrong. 

"This is not it, I'm sorry Yhuan, it feels so wrong. I'm so sorry I should have not done it."

Aila was sincerely apologetic. She could not believe how she used Yhuan just to test her feelings. 

"I hope you can forgive me, It's my fault. I'm sorry."

Yhuan chuckled, he patted Aila's shoulders and kissed her forehead. 

"That mistake of yours is my favorite, then. Don't worry, no offense taken."

He was so cool it made Aila think twice. Is he really okay with it? Or is he just pretending so that everything will be fine between them?

"Will you help me scatter these ashes tomorrow?"

Aila looked at Yhuan with hopeful eyes.
