chapter 31
ScorpioThe show lasted for 15 minutes only but for Kevin, it was more than enough. During those few minutes, he had found himself in the rock bottom of his emotions. He was never one for sudden decisions but the girl beside him has proven herself always the exemption, and so he had arrived at an important conclusion within that short span of time.
He's not just attracted. He likes her.
It's no longer because of how she looks like, especially when he takes into consideration how tempting her slender legs are. It's not longer because she's one of the few women who he can admit to be at par with his standards. It's no longer because she's probably the strongest girl he'd ever meet aside from his mother.
