Chapter 34

Sarah asks me:

"So, Sky, how is New York?,"

Yan looks me in the eye as if he really wants to know, but not only that, other things too.

I answer:

"Good, nice I think, and..."

I'm about to say something else, but Sarah interrupts me:

"Yan didn't tell me you were coming..."

We catch ourselves looking into each other's eyes for a while, I can't decipher what he is feeling. He takes a deep breath and then grabs a piece of fruit from a plate on the table and brings it to his mouth. I think he wants to look casual, I don't know if I can act like this.

I just say:

"He didn't know."

When he looks back at me, kind of surprised that I am enjoying this scene of a piece of fruit going into his mouth, making me wish it was me, I realize that Sarah is still looking at me waiting for me to answer some question she asked.

I say:

"I'm sorry. What did you say?"

She continues as if I didn't "fly" for a few seconds, making me feel bad for it.

"I love Times Square."
