412. The Penalty
"Me going back with you. What does it mean? Who is to say you won't change your mind again and ask me to leave? If you have done it before, you should have no issues doing it again."
Jael looked down at Mauve as she stared up at him with big brown eyes. Her eyes looked tired and he could tell the rest of her body was pretty much in the same state.
Her shoulders looked tense and when he applied a bit of pressure in a certain way on her arms, she winced a little. He doubted she was aware she did this.
The physical exhaustion wasn't the only apparent thing. She was also stressed mentally. He didn't like the fact that he had something to do with it.
He had heard her words clearly, he understood what she was asking him. There was no reason for her to have any worries.
The past couple of months had been nothing short of hellish, everything had seemed bland. He never wanted to experience that again.
