Capítulo 21: Assumed Date

Ella's POV:

At the end of the day, just like yesterday, we met at the library to continue working on the project. To my surprise, Jason seemed to be in an unusually good mood. It was unsettling, to say the least. Every now and then, he'd look up from his work and smile at me. That arrogant, knowing smile. I tried to ignore it at first, focusing on finishing the project as quickly as possible, but his strange behavior made it hard to concentrate.

After a while, I couldn't take it anymore. I stopped what I was doing, looked up, and asked, "What?"

He didn't answer right away, instead, he studied me like I was some puzzle he was trying to solve. Finally, he leaned back in his chair, smirking, and said, "Now that I know who you are, don't you think you could remove that damn mask?"
