"A relationship I would never allow, one that could turn you from a girl into a woman. Tsk, slow."
Huh?
I was baffled. A relationship that could turn me from a girl to a woman?
Don't you become a woman as you age? Old Olly said I'm at the rightful age to marry. Thus, I was a girl, but I'm a woman now, correct?
"Your expression tells me you still don't understand." He smirked as we both exchanged gazes. "But, that's alright. I can just show you."
He raised his hand that was initially holding my chair. "Come, stand." He adjusted his fingers, asking me to take them.
Was it truly alright to touch him? I wondered, hesitant to take his hand as mine were dirty.
However, as I darted my eyes from his hand to his pair of crimson eyes, I gulped. I hesitatingly placed my hand on his.
The next moment, he pulled me up without exerting much effort and I didn't know if it was because I was malnourished or he was just that strong.
