"I'm sorry."
Evangeline blinked. Didn't get why Eric was apologizing. Is he apologizing because he kissed me?
Her anger melted the softness on her face, but her rage didn't have the chance to burst when it completely dispersed when Eric pushed himself up enough to see her beneath him.
He soothed her anger when he saw she was about to burst. "Eve, I promise . . . starting from now on, I'll fetch you at your place in the morning and go to the market with you to buy ingredients. I'll cook your breakfast, lunch, and even your dinner if you like. I'll not just do your school projects and assignments and carry your things. I'll also send you back home every day. I'll do everything you want me to do . . . so . . . I'm sorry. . . I hope you can forgive me from what I did and give me another chance."
". . ."
After a period of silence, her hand caressed his left cheek, tracing the scab with the tip of her fingers.
