Jerlina couldn't understand what was happening. One moment she was holding the scissors to kill him and the next moment she was pinned down by him on the floor. He said he didn't despise her and she figured he was searching for a stronger word than 'despise'.
He got mad when she mentioned Gerard and then she opened a conversation to negotiate for her freedom and after that, he became weirder.
What's with that...smile? Is that even a smile? Or is it something sinister? Is he trying to scare me? Oh, Jerlina! You must have had balls of steel to suggest an exchange when he threatened to damage your baby's grave just moments ago... And there is a cut in his chest that is bleeding because you stabbed him with frigging scissors.
There was silence for more than a minute and Jerlina's brain went overdrive thinking of the possibilities. Her excitement gradually turned to anxiety.
And what's with the position we are lying? Why isn't he getting up?
