Caught Eyes

Shocking Sight

Souvii instantly froze as he made eye contact with Toffee. He was drooling from the inside as his eye turned into melting hearts. Souvii couldn't move and just gave Toffee a plain stare in the eyes. He knew it that what he was doing was bad but couldn't stop himself.

"Do you need something..?" Toffee politely asked with a calm voice. "Look, kid. I don't have all day.." He added, speaking with the same tone of voice.
" 'dh- i'm... s-sorry.. i-' " Souvii kept stuttering, his hands held together. The tight space became quiet. Toffee was left confused, with a serious face and his hands placed and held together on the table. Souvii was still standing, feeling the heat raging inside of him. Sweat pouring down over his body, and his heart beating faster than it used to. " 'i...' " Souvii whispered, before being interrupted by Toffee.
"If you have no questions regarding your work, please head out of this tent." He said in a quick speed, silencing Souvii in an instant..
"Y-Yes.. Toffee.." He awkwardly made his exit from the tent.

Toffee sat there in silence, thinking quietly. "This kid has something in his mind that I can't see.." He'd say to himself, "I'll make sure to ask him later.." He added, before getting up from his chair, and doing what he must do as leader of the camp.

Later at the camp..

Souvii walked quietly and slowly towards to his cart. He looked to his sides, though noone noticed or cared about him. Souvii kept walking before suddenly getting slammed by a broken plank. He slammed down to the floor, and looked up to see a buff monster holding the plank he was slammed with. Souvii was harmless and just looked up at said monster.
They gained attention from the nearby crowd, getting them all interested."You little FUCK." the monster shouted, facing Souvii.

"The fuck took you long to deliver those corns?!" The monster shouted.
"I just.. paid a visit to Mr. Toffee's tent.. I didn't mean to take long.." Souvii politely replied. His eyes shut tight.
"Or did ya?" They'd interrupt.
"I did visit him.. I just got distracted.. By--"
"By what?? Piece of shit.. Get back to work."
Souvii kept silent on the floor, "I was about to.. But you came to my face and slammed me to the ground.. Couldn't you wait??" He questioned.
"Oh I could.. But our affiliates can't. Now get your ass up and collect some corns!" The monster replied before walking away.

Souvii got himself up and wiped dust off his shirt. And proceeded back to the corn field. He muttered to himself and looked down, walking in silence.
Toffee would appear coming out of his camp tent, he had a curious look and had his hands behind him. He looked around the camp before heading back inside his tent.

Meanwhile, at the cornfield.

Souvii was busy collecting corn; and placing it in a sack afterwards. He seemed to be alone in the cornfield as of now, but yet again, he didn't mind at all. He continued working, it might've been seconds, minutes, hours, or even days long. Souvii felt like he was trapped, before pausing, and starting to think about what he was doing. Souvii stared down at his hands, confused. He felt strange and couldn't stop thinking about things in his head.. The world around him started to blur and rotate in a way like he was losing control. He looked at the corns then to the ground, he went silent but he heard eerie noises. Souvii started to mutter words, " 'no.. no.. s-stop..' " He slammed both his hands on his face before the area turning silent. He grew confused and stood still, before footsteps approaching from behind. He quickly turned to face who was there, and he saw.. Toffee.

"You look like you've seen a ghost." Toffee said calmly, has hands behind his back.

"I.." Souvii stuttered. Everything he saw was back to normal. Souvii scratched his head, "ehm.."
