The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Lucas had never thought of Melody as a cold person. After all, if she were truly cold, why would she come into the forest looking for him?

Melody lifted her head, still teary-eyed, and locked eyes with him. "You got it wrong. I am a selfish and cold person. You mistook me for someone else! I am inherently selfish. In fact, I wouldn't mind if you and Thalia stayed in this forest forever!"

Lucas knew she was just speaking out of anger, but he still worried about where she might be injured. He quickly got to his knees.

"Did you sprain your ankle? Did you get hurt somewhere else? Tell me, okay?" Lucas reached for the flashlight, shining it on Melody's body. She flinched slightly.

"Why are you worried about someone as selfish as me? You should just let me be. Even if I get injured or break my foot, it's none of your business!"

Melody's words were clearly spoken in anger, so it was likely related to her foot. Lucas remained silent, focusing on examining her foot carefully.
