His demeanour changed and his eyes bulged when he finally noticed Roxanne's facial expression. Her face exhibited pure anger and disgust. Her eyes burned with anger and her teeth were visible, gritted against each other as her glare pierced his eyes.
“Get your hands off of me! Now!” She growled.
Everyone appeared confused by her sudden outburst, Rita most of all. Roxanne took steps back, leaving the reach of Asher's arms, releasing herself from his grasp.
“Damnit Roxanne! What did I just tell you?” Rita screamed within herself, appalled by Roxanne's unexpected display.
Asher appeared a bit stunned by Roxanne's behaviour, especially after she had looked so smitten by him already. He definitely thought he had her already, but what happened?
“Who the hell do you think you are?” Roxanne said angrily.
Her disrespectful and angry tone made everyone there shocked. Rita looked very mortified by Roxanne's attitude and covered her face with her hands, shaking it. Dax remained calm and stoic, though he felt uncomfortable with her words. Asher felt nothing but shock by how she addressed him, her sudden reaction toward him… He couldn’t comprehend it.
“Are you talking to me?” He asked her.
Her glare intensified as her eyes focused on only him, giving him the answer to his question.
“Disgusting! What right do you think you have to touch me by my shoulders? And what’s with that smile on your face. I was right after all, you’re truly a dick, aren’t you?” Roxanne yelled in annoyance.
Her words began to affect Asher, making him angry at her treatment of him. He didn’t deserve any of her words, yet she was talking to him so casually and insulting him to his face… Did she not know who he was?
