Chapter 2
She asked weakly, "Why are you so good to me?"
In her memory, he was truly good to her...
Except at certain times, Kevin Gregory was quite dependable; at least as a friend, he was worth her getting close to.
Kevin Gregory's hand paused in its movement, and he looked up at her.
His gaze burned, and he suddenly asked seriously, "Aurelia, do you really think I'm good to you?"
"Pretty good."
"Then..."
Can she consider him?
Can she try being with him?
He wanted to ask, but...
How she would answer him, he didn't even need to think to know.
Because he knew her too well, well enough to imagine what her expression would be.
Asking her such things at this time would certainly lead to a refusal.
Maybe he'd end up spooking her away...
So, he had to be patient.
They have long days ahead; he can't be hasty.
Aurelia asked, puzzled, "What is it?"
Why does he only say half of his words and then stop?
Like he's hesitant to speak!
