Chapter 111: Crimson Agony

"Just shut up… will you?!" I found myself bursting out and my voice being loud and rude that she was startled for a moment and was looking at me with a plain expression on her face.

"What?" She was dumbfounded by my sudden change in demeanour.

"Don't put that act on, okay?"

"What act!?"

"See, I understand that I'm nothing but a slave to you, so just drop the act of being all thoughtful and stuff." I said what was going inside my head without thinking about it twice.

"But… what's wrong with you huh!?" she said in a tone that was quite new for me. She was looking at me with almost hurtful eyes, but her face was stiff.

"If there's anything I hate the most, it's people acting like they care!" There was so much bitterness in my words, but I was just expressing my honest feelings.
