Michael did not immediately reply to Sarah's question. No reason for him to be jealous? Why was there no reason for him to be jealous?
He's jealous because he likes her!
Michael sometimes doubts the contents of Sarah's brain at times like this, she is a smart woman, well… she used to be a surgeon. Of course she should be smart!
But how could Sarah not know why someone should be jealous?!
"What if I have reason to be jealous?" Michael asked, still occasionally looking at Sarah.
His heart was beating fast, and he could feel cold sweat on the palms of his hands that were holding the steering wheel.
It wasn't even the first time he had to confess to someone, and it's not his first time to confess to Sarah, but Michael was so nervous like this was his first time! Like a teenager!
"Huh?"
Sarah's mouth opened again at Michael's words. To be honest, she was very confused at the moment.
