The Sin

Chapter Three

"That was a nice movie, wasn't it? How about we grab dinner before we headed home?" asked Dash. Ivy just nods her head and smiles without even looking at Dash.

"Are you okay? Is everything alright?" Dash suddenly stopped walking and lightly grabbed Ivy's shoulder. Ivy was caught off guard and gasped. As she turns to Dash, she finds herself gazing into his eyes. Her heart starts to beat faster. The way he looks at her makes her anxious. The eyes. She was reminded of someone by the eyes. She tried to recall, but it was of no avail.

"Ivy... Ivy!" Dash called her out.

"Oh yeah. Mmmm... What did you just say? I'm sorry. Maybe I'm just too tired and my mind is wandering somewhere else," Ivy finally responded.
She's trying to come up with an excuse before Dash inquires further.

"Well then let me give you a ride home. We can have dinner some other time," Dash said. Ivy's eyes widened. She tried to stay calm. Never even once did she think that she would ride a bike. In fact she hates it for some reason.

"Thanks for the offer, but I guess I better take the bus home. Furthermore, my house is not far away from here and I just want to spend some time alone for a while. I hope you understand," said Ivy, hoping that Dash won't feel disheartened and won't ask further.

"Are you sure? Well, if you insist. I can't force you, can I? But next time I won't take a no for an answer," Dash joked. Ivy laugh. Dash really wants to spend more time with her. To him, Ivy was a special girl.

After saying his goodbyes, Dash got on his bike. As he's about to ride off, he makes a last turn and waves at her before speeding off and disappearing through the traffic.

Ivy just looked and smiled. The bike's sound causes her to shiver. At this moment something caught her attention. DEVIL'S BOY. That words are on Dash's helmet. She saw it somewhere before. She clearly remembered them.

"It's him," Ivy murmured to herself.
