“Gabriel, do you really have to be this disgusting?” Nyla snapped.

Her blatant disgust and anger made Gabriel’s smile falter.

After a long pause, he finally met her gaze and said seriously, “Nyla, one day you’ll realize that I’m the one who’s truly right for you.”

“I would never like you. You’re like a rat in a sewer–dark, filthy, and repugnant. Who could like someone like that?” Nyla shot back.

Gabriel smiled at her description. “You’re right.”

Even a rat in the sewer wanted to see the sunlight and reach for it.

Gabriel left, but his words lingered over Nyla like a shadow she couldn’t shake off.

Valarie looked at her with concern. “Nyla, maybe you should come stay with me. I feel like Gabriel has lost it, and I’m worried about what he might do.”

Nyla shook her head. She couldn’t stay at Valarie’s place forever. “No need. If he keeps bothering me, I’ll just head to Capitaria early.”
