Kay narrowed her eyes when she saw the slight, furtive glance Kyle gave her.
"Just what did you do??" Kay hissed, leaning forward.
Sam, Ali and Xing Han quickly distanced themselves from Kay.
Kyle gulped. When Ali asked that question earlier, Kyle had simply grinned. When Kay asked, however ...
He gave her an innocent smile but before he could open his mouth, Kay pointed a finger at him, "Straight to the point, oh my *dear* brother."
Sam, Ali and Xing Han shivered noticeably as she said those words sweetly, while emphasizing the word 'dear'. One could tell how much anger oozed out of that single word.
They glared at Kyle. Even Xing Han.
Their Angel hardly ever got angry, but when she did, she became the Devil. All Hell would break loose. They could even see a slight sheen of sweat on Kyle's forehead and was appeased.
A bit.
"Wait wait wait," Kyle said, putting up his hands in surrender, "I didn't do anything ... yet ... no, I did for one, but but but!!"
* entire paragaph is a quote as per translated by Rosalie Gabler from the German book“Das Liebe Ich: Grundzüge Einer Neuen Dietätik der Seele”
Elie Wiesel, Nobel Peace Prize winner (1986) was known to have used that and expanded it.
“The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference.”
