<div style="text-align: justify;">Emma was indeed on edge. She felt like she couldn't do anything to hold that wave of panic that was threatening to drown her. It was horrible, and she felt like screaming, yelling at him, telling him to go away. It seemed that every little progress she had made had been lost. Even the trust she had been able to build was gone. There was only the usual fear left.<br/><br/>"No, you shouldn't have kissed me", the girl murmured, her voice taking a higher pitch. It was obvious she was very close to losing control, and that the wrong word would set her off.<br/><br/>Unfortunately for both of them, he did set her off, accidentally. It wasn't about the kiss. It wasn't about him being harsh on her and hurting her feelings. The mention to her mother, though, definitely did the trick.<br/><br/>Emma's eyes had a terribly tormented expression, and she was starting to breath in a way that was probably just one step before hyperventilating.<br/><br/>"My mother?", she nearly shouted. "What... did you... why?", Emma started, tense. "Tell me! What do  you know, what did you do?", she full on shouted, this time, clearly distressed, scared and feeling threatened in a way she couldn't put in words.</div>
