章 87: Breakfast

"I'm fine..." she repeated her words with a hoarse voice. A weird feeling crept into her heart. She looked down, couldn't bear to see his eyes that looked at her with so much worry. 

She thought she had turned him off and now he didn't want to have anything to do with her. She thought that was why he didn't want to talk to her this morning. But, maybe she was wrong?

"Are you sure?" Xavier touched her chin and forced her to look at him. He narrowed his eyes and observed her. Elena was forced to see his eyes again and she thought she would be drowned in them. She could see her own reflection staring back at her. 

Did she look that pathetic? She was wondering.

In his eyes, she saw a woman that looked like a scared little mouse. She remembered feeling so happy and confident last night. What she had was fake confidence and happiness. It was all the pills.
