章節 139: Will You Kiss Me

The car was silent as John drove all the way back to the hospital. He parked the car properly and remain seated. John saw Diane's hands were clutching her purse tightly. Her eyes were looking outside but not seeing.

He seriously observed her and saw her unsettled. "Diane?"

"Hmm?"

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah … sure," she answered with an uncertain tone.

"You say you are but you're so quiet."

She turned her head on him and clutched his hand. "Will you kiss me?" she said with pleading eyes.

John never expected this but kissed her. Diane's lips were shaking as John's lips touched hers. Her arms around his waist were trembling as well.

He gently kissed her for a time and let go of her lips. Diane laid her head on his shoulder, breathing deep, her hands still around him.

"What happened?" John asked.

"I can't explain. I was agitated and on edge. My heart seemed to beat faster than usual. I could not calm my nerves."
