Talia's eyes widened and she scrambled further away, hiding her entire body behind the tree on hearing footsteps sounding close to where she sat.
"You idiot. I'm naked!"
Jephthah face redenned as he profusely blushed.
"I know that, I just wanted to get closer to you."
"Say whatever you want to say and leave."
He sighed and Talia sensed his nervousness. What was he nervous about? Hurting her again?
"I…know I've hurt you." He began and almost snapped before Talia said arrogantly
"You didn't hurt me." She denied, pretending to sound nonchalant.
He ignored her and continued,
"I didn't realize how wrong it was leaving you alone on the dance floor like that…it was Angel who told me I had done wrong…"
"You wouldn't have known if she hadn't told you?" Talia suddenly got up and Jephthah swiftly backed her as she stood behind him, completely bare with a furious look on her face.
