"I don't want… I don't want…" The missy continued to persist wilfully. "I don't want to change. My heart is set on you—I just want to be with you!"

I'm grateful for your care and concern, even your infatuation for me, but that's the only feeling I have for you."

"Liar!" She found it unbelievable, or perhaps, she did not want to believe these cruel words from him.

"You told me that you love me very much…" mumbled the lady to herself in a desperate act of self-deception.
