Eradan was lost, silent, and amazed at those brown eyes. He felt really touched with her apology but needed to be sure if it was genuine. Surprisingly, it was!
Using the rays of sunlight that fell on them, he saw Jade's pupils dilate as she made the last statement. Her eyes still clouded in tears.
Eradan sighed and sat up straight, still wowed at the turnout of his psychological trick. He expected Jade to either flare up or shout at him or insult him but was really taken aback at her unanticipated apology. Guess she'd passed the test, but he'll still monitor her for sometimes.
"Get up..." He said calmly as his eyes bore into hers.
Jade did as told, picking up the tray she dropped earlier. Unfortunately, a few delicious contents were spilled on the floor.
