In the study, Ryan leaned against the sofa, leisurely reading a book.
Wendy stood opposite him desperately trying to get his attention.She glared at him with knitted brows.
He ignored her and studiously turned the book, page by page.He pretended to be oblivious of her presence and focused seriously on the book.
Wendy was aghast.
"Ahem!"
She coughed loudly.
Ryan disregarded her.
"Ahem!"
Finally, Ryan raised his head from the book, stood up calmly, poured a glass of warm water and handed it to her.
Wendy was speechless.
She coughed to attract his attention, not because she had a sore throat!
"Ryan, let's have a serious talk, shall we?" said Wendy, taking the glass from him with no interest.
"Okay!"
She placed the glass on the tea table and made herself comfortable on the sofa opposite him.
With questioning eyes, she asked him, "What do you mean these days?"
Finally, Ryan raised his head.
His eyes were deep and oppressive.
"What do you mean?"
"Well...Why are you suddenly treating me so well?"
Putting down the book, he asked, "Do you mean that I didn't treat you well before?"
"No, that's not what I mean."
"Then what do you mean?"
Wendy didn't know how to explain it to him.
Damn it! Wasn't she the one who should be asking the questions? He had always treated her with great care, but back then, he did it with a sense of distance and alienation; as a duty.
But now, it was very different.
The equation between them had changed.
His genuine care for her was completely undisguised.
This change shocked and flustered her.
"Ryan..."
Suddenly, Ryan stood up.
