Brandon stopped without asking anything.
I quickly went on to say, "It's nothing. Let's go upstairs." In the darkness, I looked down and recalled the person from earlier by the car.
I thought he wouldn't know I lived here. After all, this place was about to be demolished. I didn't expect him to know and even cby.
Still, what was the point of him coming now? Brandon's strides were long. He was taking two steps at a time.
"Open the door," Brandon said. He sounded slightly out of breath.
I took out the key and unlocked the door. As soon as we were inside, he placedon the shoe rack and looked at me.
His eyes were deep and mysterious in the dark, like an ocean in the night, as if they could swallowup at any moment.

"Mae, I'm here for you now. Just take what you want," Brandon said as he started to remove his coat and pull at his collar. Earlier, it waswho was wild and urgent by the car. Now, it was him.
However, I seemed to have lost my desire. The feeling was gone, and it couldn't be recreated.
Meanwhile, Brandon was clearly as eager and longing as I was earlier.
Perhaps my lack of response made Brandon realize this, so he stopped and buried his face in my neck while breathing heavily.
We stayed like that in silence while holding the sposition.
After a while, his breathing gradually calmed, and he moved away from my neck.
I reached out and grabbed him. "Brandon." He looked atwith eyes that made my heart skip a beat.
Did he see the person I saw downstairs too? If so, he might think my lack of response had something to do with that guy.
"I'm still on my period," I whispered.
"Hmm." He responded with just that word.
Although I had heard it many times before, at that moment, it made him seem disappointed and indifferent. "Brandon, don't misunderstand," I tried to explain.
"No." He lifted my hand and held it. "You're the one who shouldn't be overthinking things." "Let's shower and then go to sleep," Brandon said before pickingup and heading toward the bathroom.
He was always like this. No matter how much I acted out or how difficult I was, he never got angry.
This madefeel guilty. I stood on my tiptoes and reached up to kiss him.
Brandon grabbed my waist and pushedback down. "Mae, do you think I'm easy to push around?" I froze. I never expected him to say something like that.
