A BOLD STEP
Watching long enough to judge her intention, he stopped the video, and exited the app.
He returned the phone to the spot he had picked it up from. His eyes darted towards Fay just before he turned around to exit the room.
Her innocent frame, sleeping, while the aftermath of tears burned on her cheeks, inflamed him.
He was pissed. She had obviously seen the video. She probably thought him a shameless womanizer.
"But why do you care?" A voice in his head asked.
"Shut up!" He muttered between breaths.
Dusting his heels, he walked out of the room, and gently shut the door behind him.
Fay stirred a little in her sleep, as a familiar scent filled her nostrils.
It was dark, yet alluring. The emptiness called on to her. One step at a time, she approached it. Whether a dream or reality, she couldn't tell.
