Vic might be in love with me. But to me, it didn't appear that way. Vic had never made an attempt to convince me that he was truly attracted to me. But if I think about it, he does not have to be vocal about it or make his passes on me; it might be that he is conscious that I am engaged to Felix. Zebin did acknowledge that I had missed it. Could that have meant they had noticed it? What about Felix—does he also know?
Vic has set up a wall between the two of us, which is an issue because I needed to have his confirmation on all of this. He was supposed to be on break at this point, but I had no luck finding him. I wonder where he could have gone. I get why he was doing this; I really do. However, I needed to talk to him to clarify this thing that Zebin is telling me because I couldn't just keep assuming and drawing conclusions without first getting in touch with the subject of the inquiry. I wanted Vic to provide the response, regardless of whether they were right or wrong.
