Okay she lied. Or, she lied to herself to be clear. Makai's words were not enough to quiet her overthinking tendencies. In fact, they only added to them. We don't need no title... What the hell did that mean?
Not that she was just so pressed to be in a relationship with him or anything, but why not? That's when shit start fucking up seemsayin'... More confusion. She did not 'see what he was saying' at all.
You would think she'd be over it by now. That was Sunday and it was now Tuesday and she was not. If anything, she was more affected now then when he said it. Then she had tried to play it cool.
Deep down in her heart, his words did not satisfy her at all. She was twenty-four years old, there was nothing appealing about a man on the other side of twenty-five who didn't want to commit.
She was so stressed.
Pay attention to a man's actions not his words they say. So why didn't she apply this same thinking to her relationship with Makai? Probably because his actions were the most conflicting part of this whole thing.
Like she said yesterday, he bought her whatever she wanted, always made time for her, complimented her constantly, and was romantic in his own way. And he didn't seem like he was entertaining anyone else, but she wouldn't bet her life savings on that.
He'd put all that effort into pursuing her that it couldn't have all been for nothing. Right?
She didn't know how she fell for him so fast. She was so disappointed in herself; she was doing so good. Now here she was, laying in bed when she should be clocked in at work, basically in tears over a man she just met last month.
And she already gave it up, multiple times at that. Maybe Kairo was right, she was just doing shit—shit she'd never done before. She just seemed so self-assured in her decisions but now feelings of regret were starting to creep in.
She hated feeling so vulnerable. She would just talk to him about her feelings, but she really didn't have time for his usual sweet talk. She wasn't so sure now if his words were true or if he was just telling her what she wanted to hear.
This was the exact feeling she was trying to avoid when she first met him and was literally the reason why she cut him off the first time. Except now it was too late. She hated how fast she got attached.
Three weeks ago she probably wouldn't have cared, she had her walls built up so high it seemed no man could crack them. Not even Makai. Or so she thought.
