Happy Kade

The scary detective likes me... Me?

Ren was pulled to reality by a low laugh.

The silly Ren was too stunned by the confession that he did not even bother with the decade remark.

"Am I that scary?" Kade smiled.

Ren looked at the smiling Marshal but could not ignore the helplessness in those bright red eyes.

He instantly shut his mouth, a blush covering his cheek and spreading to his neck.

He wanted to smack himself. Who would blurt out his thoughts at a moment like this? Idiot!

"S-sorry. That slipped out of my mouth unintentionally." He spoke while cursing himself.

His remark only made Kade curl his lips more.

"It's okay. I didn't mean to blame you. Everyone thinks that I am scary. Is it my face?"

Now Kade looked genuinely confused.

Ren shook his head in denial. It really was not the face.
