I can't believe I let it slip. Those three little words bubbling up inside me for what felt like an eternity eventually escaped my lips. And now, here I am leaning against the door of our room, replaying that infamous moment over and over again, torturing myself with every agonizing second. Time stood still, and I couldn't bear to look at Julian, so I don't know if he was happy, surprised, or anything else. At that moment, I just wanted to disappear into the ground. I bolted from the room when I saw the opportunity to escape the awkwardness. It's been ten minutes since then, but I still can't shake off the embarrassment and regret.

"What do you want to do?" he asks.
"I don't know. You tell me. You were the one who suggested we take off together and spend time," I reply, feeling frustrated.
I don't like how bratty I sound, but I've been staring out the window for over an hour. While watching the snow gradually cover the ground was exciting, I feel like pulling my hair out from boredom now.
