Prince Andrew P2
Andrew could not understand the girl's reaction at all. He thought she would be pleased that he was paying attention to her. But instead, it seems like she has the wrong idea. Then again, it is partly his fault for neglecting her over these years. Andrew reached over, "Is it hard to believe that I genuinely want to make things work between us?"
He was still unsure about his feelings for Gabrielle. Did he want to pursue things romantically, or did he simply want to change their current relationship? Their present state is not bad at all. However, it always made him feel very restless. It seems like Gabrielle has had her concerns on this, too; otherwise, she would not react this way.
"B--but, it sounds like I'm a hindrance to you," Gabrielle seemed genuinely confused.
"Let us make it work, Gabrielle; I'm unsure exactly how I wish to pursue this. But I do want to think things through. Please bear with me."
