I looked into his distant eyes. Suddenly, I remembered his passionate kiss this morning before I left.
His fans praised his acting skills. I agreed that Daniel was a talented actor.
Suddenly finding it all pointless, I turned to leave, but he grabbed my wrist. Daniel’s expression turned serious at me.
“Apologize to the young lady.”
“Daniel, you have no right!”
I turned around and coldly cursed. Daniel leaned in close to me.
He then said, stressing each word, “Felicia, I don’t want to be angry tonight.”
“What do you mean? Afraid of scaring your little darling?”
I provocatively tugged at his tie. It was a Windsor knot, which I tied with my own hands. Now, it smelled of another woman’s perfume.
“Felicia, stay away from Daniel!”
Emily suddenly rushed forward and slapped my hand away.
“Daniel, I don’t want any apologies! Why does everyone want to steal you away?”
She threw herself at Daniel. Her voice trembled with tears.
It was a childish statement, yet Daniel listened patiently.
He chuckled softly and gently wiped away Emily’s tears. “Sweetheart, I’ll only go with you. Is that alright?”
“I won’t believe you unless... unless you make a promise with me!”
