Rui distanced himself from Cali since that last encounter with her when they kissed. All that happened was too alarming for his plans regarding their relationship. He had a fair understanding of her feelings towards himself but being the kind of person he was, he couldn't help but still think all of it was her infatuation and not love.
He also thought of her to be immature and very young. Though somewhere he felt attracted to her and her warmth touched his heart in many ways, he yet could not accept his feelings for her.
Every time he picked up his mobile phone, he saw a lot of missed calls and unread messages from Cali, but he ignored them all. Even Jean was sulky at him because he clearly told her not to disclose his available schedules to Cali or else he would replace her for being disloyal.
Creation is hard, cheer me up *sob*
