Chapter 28: Not fine
"Sir! Sir?! Are you okay?"
Beatrix blushed when she heard the voice and opened her eyes.
Damien moved away from her and she averted her gaze hoping that the ground would swallow her at this moment.
Damien opened the door and Beatrix watched as he came face to face with the air hostess before letting her know that everything was fine.
She peered over his shoulder and looked at Beatrix with a smug face that confounded her, before she lowered her head and retreated.
"Are you okay, Beatrix?"
Beatrix straightened herself out by pushing off against the wall.
She bit her lips and threaded her fingers through her hair as Damien avoided looking at her in the eye.
He stood sideways and guarded, extending one arm out to her, as if unsure of what to do with it.
"Y-yeah—I’m fine." She said and forced out a smile even though she was screaming inside.
"Then I’ uhhh... give you a moment." Damien nodded and placed his hands in his pocket.
