"I just don't want you to feel the pressure. I'll sit at the end of the bed and tell you that I won't get close to you. Don't worry." He was a little disappointed and sad that she was always on guard against him.
It was very obvious that he had always been unattached to her.
Not only did she not want him, she was also on guard against him and afraid of him.
Just from this point alone, he had to be patient and talk to her properly. He could not let her have any more conflicting emotions.
She didn't object anymore. Because she was indeed afraid of the way he stood there. She felt as if there was a shadow over her head.
He sat down at the end of the bed, and she moved further into the bed. There was not a single place in her body that was close to him.
