I feel like, if he gave you that much attention, you will never be able to look back at others. It was like liking him on that level means a curse with no possible cure.
"I can kick you out of the team," he said mercilessly.
"You're cruel."
"I never said I'm kind," he fired.
"It's a pity if you kick it out. There still seems to be potential."
"What now?"
Oh, he's really serious! I sniffed and held back a smile because it seemed like he was just more annoyed there.
"You think I really like him? I don't like him, okay? I just asked because I haven't seen him in your previous practices."
"That's all?" he asked, still traces of doubt in tone and look.
"Yeah! Why, do I look disloyal? You might like the others out there! Look, the crowd is waiting, oh!"
I pointed Kiara's group with a jerk of my head. He didn't glance there but I knew he got what I was referring to.
