"What is it?" I frowned, more upset with myself than with Cain as I didn't know how to deal with the current situation.
After all, I wasn't that close with other people. Being in a relationship with someone... I felt conflicted, being vulnerable and secure at the same time. But the feeling that overwhelmed both of them... was fear. Fear that if I fall in love too deeply, separating would be the death of me.
And perhaps... it was why I kept to myself mostly. Romance and relationships with a special someone were things I'd kept to reading on paper. A work of fiction that I never thought I would ever come to experience.
"No... I... I misunderstood the situation... it is as you had said." Cain squeezed my hand a little tighter as my eye twitched from the pain.
