It was like no matter how much we hated the heat and wanted to avoid the sun, we could only do that at night and would see the sun again the next day, and that was how Clare wanted to describe the current situation between himself and Fred.
No matter how much he tried to avoid him, Fred was still near him, and they even breathed the same air and drank water from the same source. He also just realized today that it wasn't him who managed to avoid the nurse, but the nurse deliberately gave him time to calm down.
"There's nothing we can talk about," Clare replied, deliberately avoiding the younger man's face. He tried hard not to look at the man's lips which might arouse his wild imagination again, and he chose to stare at the darkness of the night in front of the barracks.
"There is," Fred denied stubbornly. "You unilaterally ended our cooperation last week, and I can't accept it. I still want to know the person who deliberately wanted to harm the soldiers."
