章 183: Aching heart

Hearing the few words that Roman uttered, Julie felt her heart sink in her chest. It was as if the things around her had started to collapse, and she wasn't able to keep it straight anymore. 

With the way the conversation had moved, Julie could tell what Roman was about to say to her. "No," she whispered, stopping him from speaking further. Though he hadn't uttered the whole sentence, she could feel her heart starting to break, and she stared into his red eyes. "I don't want to. Please."

"You didn't hear the entire words that I was going to say," said Roman, a subtle frown coming to form on his forehead. 

Julie shook her head, "I know what your next words are, and I won't agree to it. Nowhere close to it," her lips lightly trembled, and she felt like her whole world had started to crumble down, worse than it did before. 

"It isn't bad," said Roman, but Julie wasn't willing to hear him speak more on what he was going to say.
