I was staring at Alex in silence for a few seconds; a lot of thoughts were running through my mind as I wondered what exactly he wanted me to say, but as I opened my mouth, I did not think of it, yet it came out as if it was exactly what I wanted to say.
"Bonded," I said to him, and at that moment I realized the weight of the word I had just said as I took some steps away from him, immediately staring at his face from afar.
He did not say a word either; he just stood there staring at me in the silence, and the moment was the most awkward moment I have ever had in my entire life.
