Kapitel 667: Finally, the Confession

Silence hung between them for a moment, charged with a tension that was impossible to ignore.

Klaus felt as if there was something unsaid in the air, something that didn't just relate to the conversation about their past relationship. He looked into Emma's eyes, trying to decipher the complexity of the emotions he saw there. Meanwhile, Emma struggled internally with her own feelings. She wanted to tell Klaus how she really felt, but the fear of rejection paralyzed her, just as it had paralyzed her dozens of times she had tried to find the courage to tell him. They were just friends before, and their friendship meant a lot to her, because Klaus was someone incredible who whenever she needed him, he listened. The thought of risking everything, including their friendship, was terrifying.
