'This is what I hate the most, not being able to hear other people's thoughts,' Xavier spoke to himself, feeling displeased.
How annoying!
He sighed deeply, looking at Iris standing by the window motionless. But he could hear how many times she took deep sighs. He could sense that Iris also had a troubled mind, just like him.
'Is she upset because she can't get weapons from X Bar?' Xavier wondered.
Since last night, he had felt something strange about Iris' behavior—suddenly wanting a weapon, even being willing to go to X Bar, risking her own life, and almost dying at the hands of that bad guy. This little girl would probably be dead by now if he hadn't shown up.
Several times last night, he wanted to ask her about her intention to buy a gun. Still, he restrained himself from doing so, afraid that this girl would find out he had been stalking her. However, if he didn't ask and help her, she might go back to X Bar again, right?
