章 63: You Called Me

This was the worst day of her life, Dahlia was having an internal turmoil. Even at that, she would smile at Desmond whenever he turned around for the sake of keeping on with her act.

What was she going to do with Desmond today? Well, what would she do without her sister, Soya, because she suggested that they tended to the garden. And Dahlia agreed to the decision if that would keep her outside and away from tight spaces with Desmond.

"Is there something on your mind?" Desmond asked her. They were currently uprooting the weeds in the garden so it doesn't choke the vegetables.

"No. Why do you ask?" Dahlia focused all of her energy on the plants.

"You just seem disconnected, it's like you're not even here.... are you mad at me?" He asked that final part with a lowered tone.

"No! Of course, no!" She answered unconsciously.
