29 Cliff

"Such an ungrateful brat and here I am trying to comfort you." He mentally scolded her not realizing that was a normal reaction for anyone who goes near someone especially a stranger out of nowhere.

Getting no other reaction from her and when he thought they would continue this silence until the end of the world she finally reacted.

She held his shirt sleeves tightly, noticing this he couldn't help but stare at the pale and soft hand holding him feeling that the temperature rose a degree higher.

"What the hell is wrong with me? Am I having withdrawals from too little contact with the opposite sex?" He mentally berated himself.

Reen started sobbing.

Seeing this reaction, he stiffened. He was not used to seeing girls cry as he has minimal to no interaction with females. When necessary he would normally still keep a considerable distance from them.

Despite knowing the threat that she was crying in front of a total stranger who could even be a murderer from God's know where, she could not stop her tears any longer.

Thinking about this, her heart tightened again and her head hurt even more.

.....

"Where did that idiotic guy go? Leaving us here to wait for him…" Veo who had just returned from the men's room asked

"She chased a girl who was running into the abandon lot over there." Bill replied pointing at the "no trespassing" sign.

"Oh! A girl you say? That's interesting."

Veo and Bill smirked at each other, conspiracy evident in their eyes.

"Don't be foolish! You know how he is with woman." Cookie couldn't help but be hurt by her own words. So she pouted.

Bill stared at her and started laughing.

"You didn't have to be that jealous, you're too obvious! Why hasn't he even notice such an obvious fact?" Bill though confusedly which made Cookie blush bright as a tomato and Veo glaring daggers at Bill.

"Stupid! Hey Claire what are you looking worried back there for?"

"She dodged the topic, she dodged it." Bill teased again.

She glared at them which made them laugh. They knew that previously Cookie had a major crush on "him" but when she realized no one could sway his heart she decided to give up.

Veo who had fallen in love with her then took this precious opportunity and now they are an officially became a couple. But this did not make her stop having a crush on him which made Veo feel jealous each time.

"Didn't you know? That construction site they went inside was abandoned because someone actually died in there." Bill mysteriously said.

"What do you mean?" Cookie curiously asked

"Many couple-"

At the mention of couple, Claire who was previously anxiously staring at the entrance of the abandoned construction glared at him menacingly. While Cookie merely pouted.

*Cough*

"Sheesh! Women are so scary when they're in love" He dejectedly thought.
