What do you think ? They had agreed that he would pick her up from the Lightning Dance .

I see .

Sienna replied , frowning .

Ill come over right away ; please wait for me , okay ? On the other end , Josiah didnt reply .

Once the call ended , Sienna hurried to the Lightning Dance .

When she arrived , she quickly spotted Josiahs car .

Sienna rushed over , pulled on the passenger door , which was unlocked , and slid into the seat .

The wannth of the car surrounded her , and she took a moment to steady her breathing , thinking about how to handle the evening ahead .

Speak , Josiah suddenly turned to her , his gaze intense as he asked , Where have you been ? What was so important ? Sienna struggled to find the right words .

I had something urgent come up .

What is that ? Josiah frowned , his eyes darkening with anger .

Is that all your explanation? Sienna hesitated , trying to give a vague reason .

It was indeed her fault for standing him up tonight .

What could possibly he so important that you would ditch our date and ignore my calls ? Sienna looked away , unable to meet his stare .

Im sorry ; its not convenient for me to explain .

Josiah felt a surge of anger rising within him as he suddenly grasped her shoulders , Our date fell apart , and you cant even give me a straight answer ? Do you have any idea what I went through over the past few hours ? He felt torn between worrying about her safety and feeling frustrated with her dismissive attitude toward their plans .

He had suffered emotionally for her sake .

And now , he couldnt even get a clear explanation .

Sienna , I am your boyfriend ! Dont you care about me at all ? Dont you think about my feelings ? His disappointment and frustration were clear .

Yet all Sienna could say was , Im sorry ; it was my fault .

Josiah didnt w want an apology .

To him , her words felt insincere A cold smile appeared on Josiahs face as a sense of hopelessness washed over him .

Do what you want .

He let go of her , gripping the steering wheel tight as he started the car .

As they drove off , he asked , Are you still coming with me ? Sienna quickly nodded .

Of course .

Looking at Josiahs serious face , the realized he was really angry .

During the ride home , Josiah stayed silent , as if she didnt exist .

When they arrived at Silver Beach , he went straight upstairs .

Sienna let out a tired sigh and followed him .

As the went up , she noticed he didnt go to the master bedroom but headed to the study .

Reluctantly , she followed and knocked on the door .

Josiah ? There was no answer .

Josiah , she knocked again .

Josiah frowned in annoyance but didnt say anything .

Meeting his eyes , Sienna pressed on .

Are you planning to live on cigarettes and alcohol ! Dont you care about your health ? Josiah found her concern amusing Oh , whats this ? Youre worried about me ! Yes , Sienna replied firmly .

Josiah laughed , letting out a big puff of smoke .

How funny when did you start caring about me ! You dont even think I exist .

T- Suddenly .

Josiah wrapped his arm around her waist , pulling her onto his lap and looking up at her .

Sienna , tell me , do you like me ? Do you like me or not ? Sienna was caught off guard .

She thought .

How am I supposed to answer ! What does he want to hear ? She could tell he hoped for her to say yes , yet her lips felt sealed .

Tell me , okay ! His hand caressed her waist gently , but he sensed her body stiffening under his touch and her eyes turning away .

Josiahs heart sank .

I get it now you dont like me .

The realization hit him hard .

He sighed .

From the very start , I pushed this on you ; you never wanted to be with me .

It was all my force Suddenly , he let her go Leave ; I wont force you anymore .
