Scarlett's POV
"...if you want to share your burdens and emotions with someone, I'll always be there for you, Scarlett. Tell me what's happening with you." Dylan asked.
I didn't find any reason to open up to Dylan. He was letting me know that he'd be the shoulder I'd need to cry on. But deep down, was it necessary for me to rely on someone for emotional support?
Dylan was a sweet, caring individual. Maybe my sorrow could inspire him for new lyrics, or a whole album. But I found his care for me as an obligation from his side. I didn't want him to care for me. Our relationship was purely professional. I couldn't let personal matters bond us together.
I feared that. Mostly because opening up to other people tends to bring those people close. The reason I was looking to not violate our professional relationship was this. Bonding.
I had to cut it short.
