Clue

I was silent as I looked at Andrew who was yet to say the words.

What was he trying to say? What was it related to? My heart was beating fast as my breath hitched. Was Andrew in danger? He should be. Then what is it?

I could feel Andrew trying to say something but his voice did not come. Was he trying to think about what he was about to say? Was he forming the sentence in his mind?

It was confusing to me as I tried to maintain the cool on the surface but in reality, I was freaking out. I did not know what to say. I felt that if I said anything at this point maybe Andrew would not say any word at all.

"Rose, promise me that you do not hate me or anyone else. Andrew said in a small voice. I could feel the fear in his tone as I tried to maintain my cool. My smile was still on my face but there was still a little tremble in my throat.
