Cain's eyes widened in shock...

"I understand..." Susan had a soft gentle smile on her face as she said this.

'Eh? What's going on?!' Cain could feel a strange heat bubbling within his heart. The heat slowly crept up towards his cheeks. 

His hands trembled as he acted on instinct. He withdrew his hand from her grasp as quickly as he possibly could.

"Ehem! Yeah... That's pretty much it. So don't be too worried. Since that's settled, I'll be taking my leave. Farewell!" Cain spat out a few sentences all at once rapidly, as he made his escape. 

Like a gust of wind, he dashed away, leaving Susan with a confused expression on her face.

'Damnit! What was that?!' Cain was not very experienced in many aspects of life, especially when it came to dealing with the opposite sex.
