Appealing To His Gaze
His car slowed also.
We stopped. We stared at each other through the windows but made no movement, no words-just this heavy silence stretching between the glass. My heartbeat thumped against my ribs so loudly I felt it in my throat. His face looked calm, but his eyes were tense, tired, maybe angry, maybe something else.
He didn’t lower his window. I didn't lower mine.that arrogant disgusting bastard. He was playing games already. We stayed like that for a few seconds that felt longer than they were. Then he looked away and drove into the compound without a word.
