CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO

I DIDN'T see Kelvin for several days after the car incident, and I didn't bother to find him. At this point, the only thing that could help with our current situation was distance, and I gave him plenty of that. We went to work separately since I sent him a text once that I'd be going late to work. He seemed to understand the silent message I was conveying. We couldn't risk being in confine spaces together for the moment.

I still chatted with Kelvin occasionally and he was aware that I was now friends with Akin. I'd told him earlier that I was going out with Akin later in the day, Kelvin didn't input much when I brought him up. I genuinely liked Akin, but I wasn't interested in a relationship with him. There was no physical attraction between us and he was fine with being friends.
