Sarriel froze, not expecting Ryu's gentle touch. She looked up, finding a pair of silver eyes staring back at her which were decidedly less cold. Though they couldn't be said to be warm. When coming from Ryu, Sarriel felt as though the sun's rays might as well have been bouncing from her delicate features.
At that moment, her eyes began to water again, throwing Ryu off guard. Why was she still crying? Maybe he didn't' apologize sincerely enough?
Ryu inwardly shook his head. He was probably overvaluing his apology. Just because he said sorry, didn't mean that Sarriel could suddenly turn off all the emotions he had forcibly turned on.
