Chương 368: I'm Sorry For Making You Witness My Death

Heisuke led Hisaki to the bed. With both hands grasping her shoulders, he gently pushed her to sit down on the mattress.

Then, he did nothing aside from continuing to look into her eyes, his hands remained where they were before. Because of his tall stature, he needed to bend down further to meet her at eye level.

Noticing the strange way Heisuke was staring at her, Hisaki's gut twisted. She carefully took each of his expressions, only to see doubt and guilt expressed on his countenance.

"...darling, what is it? What do you want to ask me about?"

Hisaki could barely hear her own voice in the midst of the loud pounding of her heart. Her anxiousness grew as seconds passed by.

Outside, the sky had long lost the light bestowed by the sun. Only a moon and a sea of stars flickering on the carpet of night.

Heisuke pursed his lips. He moved his hands up from Hisaki's shoulders, gently cupping both sides of her face with his palms.
