Lillian looked up at Dan, after a long pause. She didn’t know what to say. She simply shook her head, refusing to answer. He was not giving up that easily.
“Tell me what you are thinking about.” His whisper was matched with an equally convincing stare. She had to tell him.
Lillian got up and walked to the other side of the desk, she sheepishly sat on the edge of the desk. “I can’t tell you what I am thinking.”
“I want to know.”
“I don’t want you to know.” Lillian qiuickly glanced at her boss to judge his reaction. She didn’t know what the rules were, what she was allowed to say.
Dan rolled his chair closer to her. “I want to help, you have been acting differently around the office. Everyone has mentioned it.”
“I can’t help it.”
“Just tell me what’s on your mind.”
Lillian looked straight into his eyes and took a deep breath. “You are on my mind, kiss me again.”
