Dr. Rodney's POV
It was hard to tell if she was just angry at me or if she was avoiding me again for reasons best known to her. Not like there was any reason I would consider good enough to make her stay away from me.
I had not expected it to be so hard. I could have just gone days pretending like I did not want to see her just as badly as I wanted to.
In class, she looked away when my eyes wandered towards her. I did not have to look too much, so I didn't draw the attention of other learners in the class. It occurred to me that the girls she was usually with did not seem to dislike me. They sometimes giggled when my eyes went at them and at other times, they just smiled. It was heartwarming everytime they did, and I wished Mia was just as free-spirited and loving as her friends were.
