Lila sat frozen. Her features were stoic but she was panicking inside.The girl wasn't big on physical contact with others. Though she never said it out loud, she was secretly afraid of intimacy.
Initially, she had gotten used to Anaya's touch. After the events that occurred between them, she had mentally cut down all the cords that bonded them.
All that was left were the pieces of the cut strings scattered everywhere. Had she been too impulsive? She didn't think so. She was used to being hurt.
Yet it didn't make it easier or less painful. Hence Anaya's action had caught her off guard. She wouldn't throw her hand off. Neither could she shrug it off.
Somewhere inside, she still felt a little compassion towards the girl. " Let go of me please. I have something I should be doing."
She cursed at how panicked she sounded. Unfortunately, Anaya only tightened her grip. She wasn't going to listen to the girl's words.
