“I believe you now… I thought you didn’t come home last night because…”

I was going to say he had gotten sick of me and wanted to do it with Emma instead but found myself unable to finish my sentence.

“I’m not really interested in Emma, so I won’t lay a hand on her any time soon.”

 

The frown on Michael’s face eased up a bit when he saw that I had believed him.

Wait… Did he just say he isn’t interested in Emma? But, she’s his girlfriend! How could he possibly not be interested in her?

 

“But Emma is your girlfriend, isn’t she? How could you not like her?” I asked after a long pause.

“What makes you think I like her?” Michael asked while staring down at me.

Although he had made it clear that he wasn’t into Emma, him not answering my question directly made me even more curious.

“If you don’t like her, then why is she your girlfriend?”

I didn’t understand why he would date Emma if he didn’t have any feelings for her.

“It’s an arrangement made by my family,” Michael said indifferently.

“Why didn’t you object if you don’t like it?”

I had my own selfish reasons for asking him that question. Regardless of whether we ended up being together in the future, I didn’t want Michael getting intimate with any other women until it was over between us.
