Worth a second glance
She liked him?
His initial surprise died down when he realized what she had just said. She was not confessing her feelings. This was not the time to be overjoyed!
He stepped forward to close the distance between them and cupped her face. He looked into her eyes, stopping the smile that was threatening to form on his face. "Jasmine, I did no such thing. I may be able to control time and events but I cannot influence anyone's feelings. If you like me, then you really…"
She swatted his hand away, cutting him off. "I don't know how come no one else feels that something is strange but I feel like crap. It's as if someone tried to remodel my brain but ended up jumbling everything into a mess. It's even worse now that I know who the culprit is, and that he is living his life normally as if he did nothing wrong. How can I trust you?"
"I don't demand your trust. I'm well aware of the fact that I don't deserve it."
