He stopped smiling and looked at her seriously, saying, "Because you were meant to be mine."
She felt flustered by his gaze and blurted out, "You're the one who left that letter to distance yourself from me." As soon as she said it, she regretted it.
The ambiguous atmosphere that had been in the room vanished completely.
