He hesitated for a moment, before slowly turning to face her so as to confirm his thoughts.
Lora stood behind him, her expression timid, almost shy. Her chestnut hair fell in gentle waves around her face and her eyes avoided direct contact with Kyle's.
Without a word, Kyle turned away, ignoring her completely and facing the stage once more.
Lora seemed to hesitate, standing there for a long moment before she finally had a seat next to him.
An awkward silence fell between them, but it wasn't maintained for long as Lora spoke, her voice barely a audible.
"I'm... I'm sorry."
'Sorry?' Kyke's eyes narrowed slightly, staring harder at the empty stage in front of him.
'Sorry for what?' The words echoed in his head, but he didn't speak them aloud.
Kyle felt his frustration build up once again but tried to remain calm, ignoring her comment.
