Cylus did not want to let go of Mina. Every time she looked at him, he felt that familiar tug that kept pulling him back to her side. When she thanked him for being a devoted friend to her, Cylus felt a surge of pride, but somewhere deep inside, he knew she was setting distance between them and at times; it was almost as if she were saying goodbye.
Pulling his eyes away from Mina's, Cylus looked back at Lisa and President Lee, only to find twin stares of bitterness. Mina must have noticed it as well because she shifted her body slightly behind his, pulling his attention back to her and invoking a smile. No matter how sexy she appeared, a person's nature could not be easily changed, and Mina was not an exception.
"Looks like your cousin could use some help," President Lee said to Cylus, who spun around to see Olivia and Peter standing near to one another.
