Roman (3)

"I'm sorry you had to see that, Roman."

"About your engagement?"

"It's a family arrangement, and he never had any plans of fulfilling it until now." Geneva quickly answered, holding onto his arms.

Roman went quiet for a while, looking thoughtfully at the man's retreating back. He remained so calm and composed that Geneva got scared, but then,

He brushed his hands through Geneva's hair, his eyes taking on a pained expression,

"I love you, Geneva, but I cannot break the sanctity of an engagement. That is-"

"Shhhhh!!!!" Geneva placed her index finger on his lips,

"Please don't say anything. I- Please…."

She started panicking. She did not want to lose him. He had become a very central part of her life so quickly that Geneva was scared to think of the alternative end of that life.
