Capítulo 289: One Or The Other

A short and simple question one moment. A convoluted and complicated decision the next. Amanda was shaping out to be a surprise wildcard in my life I never saw coming.

At first, I thought this whole fiasco here was just another ploy to get me riled… and it was that, but it was also so much more than that. She knew how I felt about Ash already…  and she used that fact to get that answer she wanted out of me all this time, convolutedly, complicatedly.

"Hey, I'm in love with you. Are you too?"

It's not like I haven't considered the notion that maybe she did indeed have taken a somewhat liking to me. I'm well aware I tend to be a bit slow on the uptakes, but in this case, even a blind man could have seen her not-so-subtle subtleties from a nation away, if I couldn't see it… then I might as well just pluck my eyeballs and give 'em off to someone who would put it to far better use than I ever could.
