Lila
"Returning to Max seems to be dangerous to me."
For a while, I've been considering myself as someone who can manage chaotic situations, but at this moment, I'm not sure of what to do as I can't figure out what's happening.
Max seems to be monitoring me.
As he doesn't want to see me close to another man. But Alex's uniqueness is making me feel acknowledged and understandable."Oh, life is full of challenges.
I'm lying on my bed, looking at my phone. Alex's last message stays accessible, and the phrases seem to mock me.
Alex: Morning coffee? Just the two of us?
I still haven't responded. My thumb hovers over the screen while I review his words from yesterday.
"You're delightful to be around, Lila," he had said, his voice steady and unflinching, much like every facet of his character. "I hope to get to know you better." "Outside the classroom."
