Truth be told, I was having a hard time wrapping my head around the reason why my palm was sweating profusely right at this very moment.
What I have been meaning to say was that this was so unlike me!
Come on, Jared! This was not the first time you have been around a girl by yourself. So what was with this childish antic?!
I mentally berated my own person.
I deliberately exhaled a deep breath, thinking that it would help me to sort my thoughts out. However, it was to no avail.
If anything, it only drew more of Cassie's attention towards me.
I could see right at the corner of my eyes that she has her eyes on me and she did not look away even when she was in the middle of fixing her seat.
Meanwhile, I feigned ignorance and pretended like I did not notice her attention. But inside my head, I am giving myself an earful.
