873 THE MYSTERY OF TIME (3)

"Do you think I went out of the tent because I want to see Serefina?" he asked. That name was like a trigger for many unpleasant memories between the two of them, they hadn't talked about her since that day.

However, Jedrek didn't want to intensify any misunderstandings between them and create another problem that could distance them from each another. He was starting to love these serene moments when he was with Lilac. Even though Serefina's matter was still at the back of his mind, still Jedrek didn't want to bet his relationship with Lilac, which had now improved.

"Wasn't it?" Lilac asked softly, her eyes casted down, she was not sure whether she wanted to hear Jedrek's answer or not.

Whether he would answer her honestly, which would hurt her if he said 'yes', or he would lie to her, which would hurt her as well. Neither of the answers would make her feel better and Lilac hated feeling like this when there were a lot of things that they should sort out.
