Gwen remained still in her place, without opening her eyes or answering him back. She had already seen this coming. Karl was very quick to catch the difference in her behavior.
'Argh!...what should I do now' she thought to herself.
Karl who had his eyes fixed on her saw her eyes flutter and now his assumption was right, she wasn't sleeping but rather avoiding talking with him.
Watching her for some time, he reached out his hand and pulled her by her waist, bringing her closer to him until she surprisingly opened her eyes.
"Karl what are you doing?" she began to free herself but he wasn't going to let her go until she speaks with him.
"Stop struggling Gwen, you can't avoid me anymore" Karl's firm tone made her still in her place and she dropped her stubbornness.
Turning himself, Karl faced her and watched her lower her eyes and she kept biting her lower lip, showing her anxiousness.
