Seeing how she got a little bit clingy after hearing he has no friends, Matthew Xi spoke. "If you feel sorry for me..." However, his words trailed off even before he could finish.
"Shh... no one feels sorry for you." She said, closing her eyes as she enjoyed his indirect approval of resting her head on his lap.
Matthew Xi just stared at her until she moved and faced him while laying on his lap. "You know, it wouldn't hurt if you trust other people a bit. Also, stop looking at people as if they're inferior beings. Jeez... you're scaring them away even before you can make friends."
"I don't need friends." Without batting an eye, Matthew Xi leaned his back against the couch since staring at her made him want to kiss her.
"There, there, that's why you don't have friends!" Zoey clicked her tongue as her under eye twitched. "No one can lives for itself. No one dies for itself."
