"Do you still love him?" Vernon blurted out the question that had been staying in his mind.
Chloe stopped munching her tacos and swallowed them hardly. She went silent for a while and then turned her head at the window, staring at the fluorescent lights in a daze.
The perfect atmosphere was shattered instantly, and Vernon continuously cursed himself for being so stupid by asking a stupid question.
'Fucking idiot! Why are you asking that?' Vernon blamed himself. 'Are you even ready for the answer? What if she says that she's still in love with Vincent? You'll only hurt yourself, dumbass!'
Vernon always wondered what'd he do if Chloe was still in love with that bastard. He might say it was alright, and Chloe would eventually move on from him.
But deep down, he knew he'd be hurt.
