The birds chirped happily as the lake is still rippling but Athena suddenly realised and opened her eyes to see herself in his arms. She looked up at him making him look down at her. She suddenly pushed him making him stumble back a few steps as his eyes widened.
"Athena..." Asher said and Athena turned around and started running away from there. She pushed the leaves out of her way making Asher confused as he didn't do anything wrong. She was running away from him with tears in her eyes. He didn't know what happened to her. He felt like an asshole for doing this even though he didn't do anything. He felt like he is the one who ruined her life. Asher ran behind Athena and as he yelled her name.
"Athena... Athena... Please stop..." Asher said as he held her wrist making her stop running and turned her towards him by her shoulders.
"Why are you running away from me?" Asher asked as he cupped her face in his hands.
