Hidden truths revealed

Two pairs of eyes gazed at each other for a very long time without any words being said. If anyone else had passed by they might have thought it awkward or weird but to them, there wasn't any uneasiness in the air.

It was as though they were communicating with each other with no words. Qilin Hao brushed away some curls partially obstructing Ji Wen's view. "How did you know?" she asked brushing his hair out of the way.

Ji Wen let her do as she pleased watching her like he was afraid she would disappear in the next second. He parted his lips as though to say something but he fell silent again with his gaze on his hand that was rubbing Qilin Hao's arm. After much thought, he finally said, "Your behaviour..... Why don't you tell me what's really going on?" As he asked this his gaze shifted back to her face his expression dead serious.
