The boy frowned looking at his own face, which looked unusually different right now. Even though it was swelled up a bit, he had very calm and relaxing expressions on his face. A wave of inner satisfaction and a reflection of peace could be seen on his face and the boy sighed deeply. "It does feel good to be cared. But I don't have to get moved by it. Remember! It is just a temporary feeling and the girl will not even bother to see your face after this Jack." The boy looked at his own face in the mirror constantly. "Stay calm and composed. Remember, the only way to avoid getting hurt is to keep people away."
The boy sighed and then walked out of the bedroom towards the stairs.
As soon as he started climbing down the stairs, he spotted the girl gazing inside the gigantic book shelf placed in one corner of the living room. She was looking at the books in much awe as a little child looked at an elephant in zoo.
