53 THE SIX BEGGARS
BRIA
"Hey!"
My head turned to see Bonnie standing awkwardly at the door.
I blinked rapidly and stretched a smile on my face.
"Hey!"
"Can I come in?"
"Since when you need a permission for that?"
She smiled before entering to sit beside me.
"I... I am sorry for earlier Bria! I didn't meant to sound rude there." I felt how apologetic she was by her tone and the way she looked pleadingly at me.
I shook my head lightly. "It's alright! I didn't mind."
But that didn't convince her. She gave me a long look, studying me, trying to unfold the outer layerings.
"Does love makes that to everyone?" She asked carefully as if she was afraid to break the tranquillity around me.
I gulped before nodding my head slowly. "If it is a true love!"
"Has he... ever told you that he loves you?"
This was the first time Bonnie had asked me that question, but I had seen it squirting in her mind many times before, but she never dared to ask.
