"Does he know already that I am lying?"
"How and why?"

He took a step forward and she took one backward till she hit the wall. She stood there and looked at him all confused, unable to comprehend what he wanted,
His fingers slowly grazed on her hand and finally reached her palm and then he took the pen from her hand and threw it away. He gingerly took her thumb and kissed it with his lips. He then looked into her eyes and placed her thumb inside his mouth and sucked it slowly like he wanted to absorb all the pain.
