章 45: Movie and Lunch

Clara and Sebastian both came out of the room like nothing had happened. Clara headed for the washer, leaving Sebastian to her brother. She started the load, so they could use their clean clothes later, but in reality, she was just trying to evade their attention. She needed time for herself. To think about what she would do with this relationship, Sebastian seems intent on having with her. But she doesn’t do relationships. She would rather deal with computers and microchips than people.

She was still asking herself if she heard him right. ‘Did he just say he loved me? Or did I mishear that? Ugh! So complicated!’

‘That was a first, though. None of the guys I dated before even mentioned that word before. Well, maybe there was that one guy that wanted to get into my pants.’

‘But he’s not Sebastian, so it probably means different. Aggghh...,’ she thought, feeling excited, elated, giddy? Maybe there was something else here that was worth pursuing.
