"Wait, you… you….." Shane didn't have any words as he stuttered. "Echo is that old?"
Hope's expression twisted at that. "What the heck do you mean old? Never ask a girl about her age! You did worse! You actually commented on it!"
"It's not like I'm talking about you, right?" Shane frowned when he spoke those words as he felt an inexplicable intuition in his heart, making him ask again in a low voice, "Right?"
Hope was silent for a moment. Her silence made Shane feel uncomfortable as he took deep breaths to calm himself down.
No, it couldn't be Echo. That woman's personality was twisted to the point he couldn't face her, but…
No, Hope was the most twisted girl he had ever met in his life. There was no one more twisted than her, ever.
Suddenly, the woman said, "So what if I'm?"
Shane felt the world suddenly becoming blank in front of him. He felt his heart had never felt more confused in his life.
