Water in the desert

Sandra flinched at her brother's outburst. Coal never shouted at her and now she doubts if her assumption was right.

Coal watched Sandra's shocked face and he averted his gaze from her. He tried to calm his nerves but he couldn't stop himself from thinking about Ruby's rejection.

He mustered up the courage to be as good as he can and said," Sandra I am in no mood to play with you. So, please... leave me alone" he gritted his teeth as he fisted his palm trying to calm down.

Sandra who looked at him in pain understood it was better if she let him be and come when he had finally calmed. 

Agreeing to his request she vanished from there while she let him know.

Coal held his heart and closed his eyes shut. He didn't want to be like this but what was he supposed to do when his heart wasn't ready to accept her words.
