Is there anything you want to do?
Anna looked at him with tears in the corners of her eyes, speechless.
"Or do you simply not take my words to heart?" Matthew asked again.
Anna shook her head quickly, "No, how could I not take your words to heart, I remember everything you say."
"Then why are you still so afraid of me?"
Anna could not answer.
From love comes worry, from love comes fear.
She could not say that she was scared and insecure because she liked him so much and had been rejected so much in the past that sometimes she woke up at midnight and even thought it might be a dream.
Because this dream was too beautiful, so beautiful that it was nothing like the real one.
Sometimes she even thinks that she might be a dreamer, which world is the real one?
"Silly." Matthew sighed and gathered the girl in his arms with his long arms, tapping his chin on her head with a deep hint of helplessness in his tone, "You need to give me a little more confidence, or better yet, be more confident."
Anna was cradled in his arms and almost fell softly asleep with her eyes open.
"You're not the only one who likes me, I like you too."
His voice was soft, his tone was low, and he spoke to her seriously and unequivocally about the true deepest feelings in her heart.
Anna felt her heart slowly fill with emotion and nodded, "Mmmmmm."
"Are you going to hide again?" Matthew asked.
Anna shook her head vigorously, "No, I will face all the problems with you, I will not hide."
In fact, when she thought about it, it seemed like nothing had happened, but she had been so nervous and upset that she had thought about it too much.
She would have to overcome this kind of thinking in the future.
"Now, then, let's talk about ...... what you said before."
What?
Talk about what was said before?
What things?
Anna blinked, having a not-so-good gut feeling.
Matthew took a half step back and stared at her, "Just now you said ......."
He had a smiling expression on his face and did not complete the sentence, but Anna's face blushed quickly and she snapped her hand to cover Matteo's mouth, exclaiming, "Don't be ridiculous, I didn't say anything just now."
"Oh?" Matteo laughed slightly and the breath that gushed out hit Anna's palm, so hot that it burned her hand like fire.
He almost burned her.
Anna was frightened again and ready to withdraw her hand, only to have Matteo grip the thin white wrist tightly.
"What are you hiding from?" His voice was hoarse: "Didn't you say you would no longer hide what you just said, and you forgot?"
Anna: "...... what we just said about hiding is not the same as this ......"
He was talking about not being too sharp on his own anymore, not in this way now yes, "You are deliberately misinterpreting what I am saying!"
"What misinterpretation? Didn't you say that sentence?"
But no matter what Anna said, Matthew didn't seem intent on letting her go, his breath coming particularly close to her as he spoke, their breaths merging into each other.
"Just, even though I said it ...... so what?
Me, I'm just ......"
"No matter what it is." Matthew squeezed her wrist once more and leaned down, his thin lips pressed to her forehead, "Only you said it anyway."
"......"
Anna had a feeling she had pulled the wool over her eyes.
So she had really only been speaking from hearsay, but Matthew really wasn't going to drag her out, was he?
