Tragedy 219 - Being my lover?

"You're a bitch! You annoying warden! You always impose your will without ever caring about my feelings!"
Leon was silent for a moment, Elvina's words some time ago instantly rang in his mind.
"I've always told you to do things you shouldn't, and I just realized that it makes you keep your distance from me even more. I don't want that. I don't want you to keep your distance from me, and I don't want to make you hate me. Because.." Leon took a pause.
"…Because I like you. I don't want to be away from you, so I think it should be better for you not to keep your distance from me. I want you to be mine. Will you... be my lover?"
Elvina pulled her hand from Leon's. He was completely astonished by what had just been thrown out of his mouth.
"B... I'm kidding, right?" Elvina.
Leon chuckled softly in response to the reaction from Elvina just now. "Do I look like I'm joking with you?"
Elvina. His brain was trying to process every word Leon had just said.
"I know you're surprised. I won't ask you to answer now, I'll give you time to think. So please.. consider my words," said Leon gently.

"Lussia!" Gloria waved her hand towards the girl who had just arrived inside the cafeteria room.
Lucia walked over to her best friend who was sitting with Heru near one of the tables behind it.
"Why are you eating here?" Lucia raised her brow in confusion when she found Heru sitting opposite Gloria, but as she remembered, the man rarely sat with her.
"I'm the one who invited her to sit here, let's sit down" said Gloria.
Lucia took a seat opposite Gloria. The girl put her tray on the table.
Just as Lucia landed her butt on the seat, suddenly Rei came and put her tray on the table.
"Can I join?" he made everyone instantly switch focus on him.
"Of course, sit down." Gloria cut Lusia's words quickly.
"Thank you." Rei sat down on the empty seat that was beside Heru.
Lucia looked at her best friend, she obviously did not like sitting at a table with Rei. But he instead allowed her to sit there.
"Why are you…"
"Ssttt. Heru is also sitting here."
"But you know that I'm not comfortable sitting with her, right?" Lucia whispered to him.
"Why should you feel uncomfortable if you don't have feelings for him?"
Lucia suddenly shut up, dead fleas with the words of her best friend.
Lucia turned her attention to the food before her, as did Gloria and Heru. But it was different with Rei who was now watching Lucia sitting opposite him.
Rei noticed the movements of Lucia who was now lowered, he seemed reluctant to face him.
"It looks like you're not comfortable with me being here. I'd better sit somewhere else." Rei had just woken up, but Gloria quickly held back her steps.
Lucia and Heru looked up at her who was just about to leave.
"No, no! You don't have to go. Don't get me wrong, Lucia's just having a bad day." Hold Gloria fast.
"But…"
"Sit down again, ignore him" he said. Lusia turned back to Gloria with a surprised look.
Rei sat back in his chair.
