Chapter 35 - Because I like You

I've never been so relieved to hear his voice. Especially his voice being this close to me. It felt like the ice around me broke into pieces and I was freed. The pain in my feet disappeared as I immediately turned my body to face him and found him squatting behind me.

"Why would you be walking in here barefoot, lady?" he asked with his voice having a hint of annoyance. The moment I faced him, he scanned my body and I watched him go annoyed even more seeing what was happening. "Why did you even come here if you can't even run properly," he added looking at the wounds on my knee.

But how did he even know I was running? Has he been watching me?

He tilted his head when he noticed I wasn't replying. "Why can't you just stay in your room?" he asks me again with that tone.

Has he been watching me while I was running for my life after my attempt to come look for him?
