His doubts

"So….we were in love. That's why I could feel attraction towards you…" he said, looking at her.

" Am I true? " he asked her.

She blinked her eyes repeatedly as if she was shocked by what she heard. 

" Answer me…." He asked, examining her eyes. Her heartbeat quickened with their proximity and his question. She doesn't understand whether it was real or her dream.

She gulped her throat nervously and replied, " I didn't understand what you mean, " 

" I asked you whether we are in love with each other! " he repeated.

She shook her head without lowering her eyes. 

" But why am I feeling a strong attraction to her? Did I mishear her words? " He doubted in his mind. He wanted to look into her eyes.

" Miss. Emily, I am sorry. I felt such a special bond with you. I wanted to clear my doubt…" he said.
