81~ HURTING HER

EMMA 

"Emma, we need to talk." Those words kept bothering me from the moment he spoke. I didn't know what would come out of his lip but one thing I hoped he would let slip out of his tongue was that I should leave his apartment.

My little sister is beginning to settle down and make friends because the gamma took her there made me so satisfied. I wouldn't want all that getting stripped away from her all of a sudden.

I looked up, meeting his gaze. His eyes held something like guilt and vulnerability.

 "I know a lot is going on in your mind," he began, "but I truly hope things can get better between us. I'm trying my best to prepare you to become the next Luna."

The words hit me like a tidal wave. "Excuse me? What are you talking about? You don't even want me. Is this because you have no other options?"
