Kapitel 32: New Self

"Good night." Aciel smiled.

She nodded. "You too.*

Her heart could not stop pounding. She felt like it would burst out from her chest. She thought Aciel would do something beyond kissing, but she didn't.

"Hey, go to your room." He said.

She knew her face was red because she could feel the heat from her cheeks. Was she expecting something other than his kiss? She thought to herself.

"Ouch!"

She looked at Aciel and pouted. She felt the pain when he flicked her forehead with his fingers.

"What's that for?" She asked while rubbing her forehead with her palm.

"You're thinking of something else."

"W–What? No, I'm not."

He chuckled. "I really want to do it right now. But I'm trying not to. You're not ready so I don't think it's the right time."

She appreciate Aciel for considering her situation. Maybe she was expecting more than the kiss, but she was unsure if she wanted it.
