It was a long while before I broke away from the kiss. I was having a mental war with myself, subconsciously forgetting that I was kissing. Zen was still holding me by the waist, unwilling to let me go.

"Zen, I need to go. Glenn is actually waiting for me. He was the one who fetched me here. It has been too long. I need to go now." I awkwardly push him away and headed to this bedroom door.

He pulled my arm harshly and back hugged me by the waist. "You stay in this room. I'll check if he's still around." He placed his lips beside my ears and whispered, "You can't leave me that easily." With that, he exited the room.

My body was not responding, I was too confound to move. I don't know if I should be feeling afraid or touched by his love. I know Zen won't hurt me but he seems to be getting a little creepy.

The door opened and Zen peeped in. "He left. I can swear to you. When I went out, there was no sight of anyone. Not that I asked him to leave."

I was slightly disappointed that Glenn left without messaging me. At the same time, I'm glad that I did not have to explain to him what happened to Zen. He might ask me tomorrow during school, but then again, he should already have known that Zen like, or should I say, love me.

"Then I'll take a cab home. See you tomorrow, Zen. You look too healthy to skip another day of school."

"I'll bring you back home. Give me a while to change." He walked to his wardrobe and started searching for something to change into.

"It's okay Zen, I'll-"

"Do not reject me! I said I'll bring you home!"

I was stupefied at his increase in volume. "I get it. You don't have to yell at me. That hurts. I did nothing wrong to you."

Immediately he ran towards me, dropping his clothes on the bed and hugged me so tight that I could not breathe properly. I can only hear his voice beside my ear. "I'm sorry, Harley. I'm very sorry. I didn't mean to shout at you. I just don't want to get rejected by you. I can't live without you. I have loved you for 3 years now, please understand. I'm really sorry."

"It's okay. Go get changed. I'll tell my brother to prepare your dinner. Join us."

His mood instantly changed 180-degree. Is he going crazy?
