The lyrics of the song whispered through Scarlets lips made Dexter fell a cold shiver of remorse. He wondered why she had flinched and moved away from him. But then again he was in a bit of a mess, yet it hurt him a bit deep down. The silence that followed the end of the lyrics was a long gloomy one, finally he broke it. "Why are you so afraid." Dexter asked with openness, he wanted to know why she had moved away, why she cared so much, why she looked so ill. He felt a tingle of what he had felt with Mist, an urge to share deep feelings. May be that was one of his problems repressing everything he felt. Maybe the monks were wrong, maybe it is good to feel. Dexter felt confused and threatened by his own thoughts. Yet he waited looking directly at Scarlett with his wide green eyes.
