"No, sir. I'm fi-"
"Shh. Take it quietly." He used his strict tone on her that had her immediately complying.
Muttering a small thank you, she took it from him, her fingers brushing with him in the mid, causing her to flinch away. Her reaction had him raising his brows.

Isabel, anxious, maintained her silence.
"Very well." He picked on her nervousness and decided to make things easy for her. "Sit." He indicated towards the bench.
Isabel, clutching the disposable cup in her hand sat down at some distance from him.
Few minutes of silence fell again them with Isabel's eyes lowered to her lap and Chris.. Well
