Chapter # 32

“Wait a minute. What do you mean by what I am trying to do?” She asked, her tone getting slightly angered as she stood up.

“You know what I am talking about.” I hissed, turning to her.

“No, I don’t. According to you I lied to you. So tell me what you are talking about.”

“Don’t disturb me.” I said sternly.

“No. Listen. You are believing Elmer because he told you I was going to tell you this before and you believed him?” She asked.

“Didn’t you think for a second that he might be saying this to clear himself up and put all faults at me?” She continued, agitated.

“Why don't you believe me?” She asked in a croaked voice.

“Who is Nicolas?” I asked hurriedly. Her eyes widened upon hearing, her mouth gaped along with a look of stagger sweeping off from her face.

Fright mixed with distress formed over her face which made my heart ache in the terror of knowing something unbearable for both her and me.

She narrowed her eyes at me in… disgust?
