Ella refused to keep up with the guessing game.
"I won't know if you don't tell me," Ella spoke up when there was no response from Adrian.
One second.
Two seconds.
Three seconds.
One minute passed by.
They stood in the middle of the path, with Ella holding Adrian's palm and expecting a reply from him.
While the man did not utter a single word.
"_"
If Ella could eat her words back, she would have!
God forbid a pleb like her dared to expect this 'I won't say a word but you need to understand what I am saying' god to communicate with her.
'Perhaps, I am overthinking it and pushing his boundaries…' Ella sighed and let go of his hand.
Suddenly, the sky darkened and Adrian's face was enshrouded in shadows.
Ella: "_" Sir, can you not scare me like this?
However, contrary to her expectations, the man did not act or speak.
Instead, he turned around and walked away.
