The Sincerity in His Heart

Everyone was silent to the point that you could hear a pin drop. Their attention was focused on Piku, and they wanted to know her answer.

"I-I…" Piku couldn't answer, but her face blushed red like a tomato. She shifted her eyes toward Vicenzo, who also looked back at her. Their eye contact made her shy, and she hid her head behind.

"Say it," Felicia used her dominant voice to push Piku to tell the truth.

"Piku, you don't have to—" Paku consoled her sister, but she was stopped.

"Tell me what you feel, or I will send you back to where you belong?" Felicia stated sternly, with her eyes sending daggers at Piku.

Those who heard that sentence gasped in shock and thought how horrible Felissa had become. 

"I…" Piku has tears in her eyes while gathering her strength to reply.
