With hair that curled in many directions at every hour of the day , soft-spoken lips and a furious mind, and the way he awkwardly glanced away when she stared back for too long. His hands could so easily snap her in half. He was awfully obsessed. "The problem with the human mind is that we so desperately want something that we will create an illusion to achieve it.
