My body felt frozen, as did my lips, which were difficult to open when Uncle Martin asked about Mr. August. I was confused about where to start this story, while my relationship with Mr. August was just an agreement I made to save Uncle Martin earlier.
Should I introduce Mr. August to my uncle as the boss who helped me, or as a savior I found in a time of trouble? In front of me, Uncle Martin looked at me with a questioning face. Meanwhile, Mr. August, who was standing behind me, began to walk to the other side of the bed to be closer to Uncle Martin.
I only hoped that Mr. August wouldn't say anything nonsensical about us. He might be in control now, but I didn't want Uncle Martin to know what I had sacrificed for him.
"Good evening, I am Ellena's boyfriend. My name is August, sorry if my presence disturbs your time together." I widened my eyes for a moment and then lowered them. Mr. August really said something that left me speechless.
