The brutal silence between them resumed with Becca waiting for an answer, giving him time to respond but he didn't. Not even a word and it hurt.
Becca felt something in her cracked and a teardrop glided down her face as her eyes squeezed shut. After everything they had shared, after opening up and letting Leo in, he was still hesitating to do the same even to this day.
Didn't he trust her? What was he scared of? Why doesn't he want to tell her? It fucking hurt, like a sharp dagger to her heart.
Leo made her fall madly in love with him, he got her to open up to him. He said he wanted to give her everything and have everything with her but despite that, he still didn't trust her to share anything with her willingly.
Becca wasn't just upset about what happened that afternoon, it also wasn't only Raquel's death that put her in such a foul mood, No. It was Leo, it was all him and his annoying hesitation.
