Chapter 340

I took slow but steady steps towards it. My stomach kept grumbling probably because the front was in front of it and the scent was so appealing. I patted it trying to get it to calm down as there was no way the food was going to pass by me, without entering my stomach. Hearing my footsteps the person in charge of the meat turned towards me, when I saw his face I greatly rejoiced in me, because I knew if I begged him he would give me a piece. There was not going to be any need for violence, which I was grateful for, because I had decided that I would use whatever means possible to make sure I would have the meat in my mouth.

"I have been looking for you everywhere. I wanted to apologize again and try to explain better, although that does not justify the wrong I did and the hurt you felt"

Guilt!, Yes that is a very powerful emotions that would help me reach my goal. The more he felt guilty, the more he would be willing to do anything to appease me like giving me a piece of meat.  Now that I was closer to it, I could appreciate it more. Although I do not know what type of meat it was, I was not bothered because I knew it was going to taste awesome. When I bent, my face was practically shoved into the meat and my mouth watered the more. It had this smoky smell that seems to invited me in. I had to have some decorum and not disgrace myself, although that was what I actually wanted to do, eat like an abnormal person. I moved away from it and went to sit beside Juna, and pretended as if I was paying attention to what he was saying.

"I really did not do it with the intention of hurting you. It's just that I remembered a part of me that I never knew existed and we had been apart for a while. I did not know what category to fix you in my life and how to relate with you from here on out"

I could understand the source of his confusion because were we in like a sibling category or was I to be like a parental figure to him. If he had told me this earlier, I would have told him to let nature take his course. We could reacquaint ourselves by starting out as friends, it would actually help our bond grow tighter.

"Instead of us trying to put  a label on it, why don't us try living our lives like we normally use to but make space for each other now. I think that would be an easier assimilation"

He looked as if he was contemplating it deeply which I was actually grateful for, I feel like this method would be better as it would aid our relationship not to seem overly forced on both parts
