Chapter 115: HUG
"And you are still pure in all ways, Miss Dove. And you always will be."
Dove’s eyes stung listening to him say that. She opened her mouth slightly taking a deep breath. Never did she know that her heart actually wanted to listen someone say this to her.
And alas! No matter how much she tried, she could not really keep her tears to herself.
A drop of tear escaped her eyes, and then another, before they started flowing freely, and her shoulders trembled.
And seeing her, Dante instantly froze and his cutlery dropped on his plate with a noise. W- Why is she crying? He instantly panicked not knowing what should he do.
Dove lowered her head, and pressed her lips in a silent cry. Though, she tried her best to stop crying, she just couldn’t.
And looking at her, Dante felt like his heart would just jump out of his chest any moment. He was just so panicked.
He stood up from his chair at once, before going to her and he kneeled in front of her chair, "Miss Dove? What is wrong? Did I say something wrong? I am so sorry, if I did. I wouldn’t say it again! Please don’t cry. Forgive me."
Dove wiped her eyes and shook her head, intending to say that it doesn’t matter. But before she could even say something, Dante already thought that she shook her head because she wasn’t going to forgive him, and he honestly felt so torn.
