Anu no longer smiled calmly at him, he noticed. Maybe she understood his dilemma exactly, and was wondering just what he ought to do to get through it. But her words made it feel like no big deal, and the young man felt himself shrink slightly. It was like he was being stupid, because that was exactly what he was. He knew he ought to say it with ease, but he was never one to follow whims and emotions, like others in his family. It was always logic and clarity that ran his limbs than desires. But why was he struggling with this for whatever reason.
"Shouldn't I be?" he asked her tentatively, brows furrowing as his voice rang quietly in question. He leaned onto his thighs, elbows wedged firmly. "Isn't that what anyone worries about?" Silvano was genuinely concerned she didn't, because she never really acted like she wanted more than friendship from him, despite all those circumstances. "Sometimes, I feel like she does, but other times.. I don't have a single clue..," he said meekly, feeling rather silly.
