After rambling for five straight minutes about her fantasies, Gloriana abruptly halted.
"Ah, sorry there Ves. I didn't want to overwhelm you with my aspirations. Irene warned me that I shouldn't get carried away in front of you. I hope I haven't frightened you too much with my forwardness."
That was the least of his problems with Gloriana!
"...It's okay."
"That's great!" She grinned. "I should probably get going now, but know that you will always be in my heart! I'll be in touch again. In the meantime, I hope you keep thinking of me. I'll definitely help you overcome your anxiety. Bye bye!"
The comm call finally ended, leaving Ves behind with two conflicting emotions.
One part of him deeply wanted to grow closer to Gloriana. Another part of him strongly urged him to do the opposite!
Neither side could eliminate the other. Both maintained a tenuous balance.
"Am I overreacting or am I being prudent?"
