"I am really sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you."
Jace's voice echoed beside her ear. Jackline turned to look at him slightly before patting him softly on his shoulder.
"That is fine. You don't have to worry about it."
Jace was still confused with her immediate response. Shouldn't she be angry at him for what he did? However, looking at her calm expressions he was not able to point out what might be bothering her. He thought that possibly today's day was a little bit tough for her which might have been hindering her emotions and nothing much must have happened out there.
He was about to take off his leather jacket and cover her with it when she just stopped him.
"I am good. You keep wearing it. It is cold."
Her response was casual but somehow Jace felt as if she had been distancing herself from him.
"Are you… trying to push me away?"
