A dull silence followed my question and I did not tear my gaze from Jin-Yeok for a single second. I wasn't even sure I got to blink while waiting for him to give me an answer after listening to me for so long.
And then, his lips curled up but not in a gentle smile or a mocking grin. He looked rather conflicted with that smile on his lips.
"I see." He said with a silent voice. "I guess I did too much and as a result, I only brought you to confusion instead of easing the worries you have."
He stroked my hair.
"I was almost happy to hear that I make your heart flutter but I couldn't rejoice at it because I heard you say I still make you anxious." He said. "I thought the things I've been doing so far were enough to get rid of your anxiety completely, but I was mistaken. I only made you worry more and become more weary with my actions. I was gravely mistaken, wasn't I?"
