Dante was back to standing stoically before Teresa who knew what was coming.
Was she ready for it? Nope.
Did she want to just run away at the moment. Yup.
Can she, though? Nope.
Before Dante would loose his patience and simply resort to drag her away this time instead of being miraculously civil about this whole situation like he has been so far, Teresa opened her mouth.
"Umm, can I ask for one more favor?" She almost squeaks out nervously fidgeting her fingers together. Altering between looking up at him and then anywhere else but him.
She couldn't take his intense gaze, especially when she is so sure she will get a rejection this time around.
