“I didn’t want to seem so intense as the first day.” “So, I didn’t want to make you feel uncomfortable and I tried to be more considerate of you!”

“Absolutely not,” she interrupted. Her response was decisive and in a monotone that wasn’t dry, and didn’t hold debate.

Dennis, who watched her carefully, raised his chin through the tension of his lips and asked hopefully.

“Of course,” she nodded, repeatedly, willingly.

“I’m… free. Anytime!” She exclaimed, stuttering a little without thinking to hesitate.

“But..” “Aren’t you very busy?” “Won’t.. I bother you?” she inquired.

Hearing her nervous tone, Dennis was surprised and lost his tongue in emotion, for a moment.

‘He didn’t really mind. At all.’ And he was happy!
