Capítulo 164: 164. About last night...

Hayford's heart clenched at Elaine's words. She had been waiting for him... And here he was, even thinking of leaving after packing. How horrible could he even get?

He took the small bag from her and ushered her into his room, closing the door behind them. Elaine tried as much as possible to act normal so she turned around to face him.

"You won't be going to the school today? You seem a bit relaxed." She tried to not drift her eyes from his to show that tint of shyness in them. 

"Yes, um... I ended all my lessons last week. So I can decide to go or stay." He gently explained, also trying to act normal because he felt Elaine was only pretending to be nonchalant about what happened. "Have a seat." He offered when they walked a little further till they reached his small dining table.
