"W-What?" She asked with a stutter.
"You heard me honey." Derick said dryly.
She touched her throat. "Do I need to answer that right now?"
"Yes."
She suddenly felt a little chilly. She hugged herself. She also inhaled deeply as if she needs more oxygen to think properly.
She felt him put his jacket around her . She closed her eyes which are under the sleep mask. She sniffed his wonderful scent engulfing his jacket She thought he would wrapped his arms around her too but to her dismay, he seemed to have moved a few steps away from her.
She almost groaned in frustration. She is starting to feel annoyed. He seems to be teasing her. She knows that he can read her like a book so he probably sensed that she is longing for his touch. She decided to just deal with what seems like his ultimatum.
"So if I say no, that means we end everything? No more texts and phone calls?" she asked with a slight frown.
