Lila looked up at him as he spoke. She could sense his anger towards what happened. Luckily he didn’t sound anger at her. Luckily he didn’t judge her. He didn’t think of her differently. This was much to her surprise.
She listened carefully as he talked. “Yeah, you’re right. Karma is a b**ch though right?” She asked hoping it was true. There was one other thing about her past that she didn’t know how to tell anyone. Maybe one day she will figure out a way to tell Owen.
However that was a conversation for another day. Today she told him this and that was big enough. She couldn’t tell him more than this in one day. This was heavy on its own. She tried to breathe as he talked. She felt safe with him, but even safer when he asked “Can I?”
She was a little nervous but at the same time she wanted… wanted him to hold her while she cried. Isn’t that what guys are suppose to do. Hold a girl when she cries. She wasn’t sure, but she knows she never had that before. She slowly shook her head yes. She looked up and her eyes met his. This made her smile slightly as she was crying.
