The Marvelous Elijah's Return
Chapter 21
Why am I acting like this?
After Elijah took the briefcase from Matt and walked off, he did not look back to see if Peach was following him.
Knowing how unstable his mood can get, Peach got off the stool and nervously followed after Elijah, watching his back closely. The moment he got to his room door, he finally stopped, and looked back at her, standing behind him with her hands clenched by her sides!
His expression softened as he opened the door, walking in, and Peach silently walked in behind him.
After Elijah closed the door, he threw his briefcase on the bed and turned back, facing Peach who stood there, a few feet away from him.
“What’s wrong?” Elijah asked her, noticing how sad she looked. “Nothing,” Peach mumbled as Elijah approached her. “Don’t lie,” Elijah responded, cupping Peach’s face in his warm palm and wiping away any traces of tears from her cheeks.
With a sigh, Peach gave Elijah a small smile and whispered, “I was talking with James about my family, and it’s the reason why I lost control of my emotions…” Raising her eyes to lock with his, Peach gazed deep into them as though to tell him everything without being able to say the words aloud. “Damnit! What about her eyes that always seem to catch my attention?’ Elijah thought, unable to help his gaze from lingering on her fluttering lashes and tears, rolling down her cheeks. He felt his hand unconsciously reach up towards Peach face and then slowly, he wiped away each tear that rolled down as he thought, ‘A woman who can sway a man’s emotions with just a gaze is more dangerous than the ones that slap him in the face. But why…”
Peach’s fingers lightly ran across his knuckles as he stared at her for a few seconds longer before letting go of her face.
Clearing his throat, Elijah pulled his hand away, and replied, “I got the twenty thousand dollars,”
Immediately, Peach’s eyes lit up as she grinned widely, “You have the money!?” When Elijah nodded, she rushed into his embrace, burying her face in his chest and sobbing
uncontrollably, ‘Thank you!!! Thank you!!! Thank you… thank you!” The gratitude in her tone shocked Elijah as she continued to hug him tightly, pressing her head against his torso, while her body trembled with suppressed sobs.
