Jasper's dark eyes were looking straight at her. She was all huddled up, hugging her leg as she leaned against the iron railings. She looked so helpless and pitiful like a caged rabbit.
Her eyes were slightly red, probably from crying or maybe she just woke up. Her usually usually cheeky face now looked so battered with her hair disheveled and her eyes filled with grievances. Tseemed to have stopped as the two exchanged glances.
"Mr. Hughes, are you here to visit me?" Willow asked boarsely after sked spapping back to her senses. "You can leave now," Jasper said.
Willow was stunned. "What?"
