313 How Evil!

As Shui Xian got ready to leave, he walked towards the door but after only a step, he stopped. Looking back at Raelle, he said, "Then, I'm leaving now."

"Okay," said Raelle.

He took another step further before stopping to look back at her yet again to say, "I'm really going."

"Okay," responded Raelle yet again in the same way.

He wilted like a flower before he stepped over to the door. His hand was placed on the doorknob but before twisting it open, he turned his head back to look at Raelle and saying, "I'm almost gone."

"Okay," Raelle didn't know how else she could reply to him. 

His unwillingness to leave was so obvious that even an oblivious person like Raelle could feel it. But she really didn't know how to respond in this situation. After all, this was so new to her. If one had to go to work, what could she do about it? According to her understanding, one should work diligently.
