Chapter 44 Finding A Way Out

• "What are you thinking?" once I didn't respond to him, he murmured in whispers. I stole my eyes from him and kept thinking about this situation. I have waited my whole life for this day and now that it is finally happening, I am stuck. And, luckily, Mr. Ben hadn't walked in on us, if he saw us like that, we are both dead.
• "Actually," I uttered, clearing my throat. "I already asked someo---," he didn't let me finish, pulling his body away from me, he shook his head,
• "Of course, I didn't mean that you have to come with me. It was just what I wanted." He lowered his head and sat there for a few seconds. He awkwardly forced a smile onto his lips while kept looking at the TV. He wasn't going to fool me with his *Oh I am fine* gestures. But I had no courage to say anything else, he lifted his head to the TV and then got up. Standing on his spot for a few seconds, not exactly moving.
