How do I ask a guy if he’s still interested?

Anonymous
I’ve been dating this guy for a month. It was going well but we hadn’t talked in a week, he said he has midterms but I’m not sure whether it’s that or him ignoring me.

I texted him yesterday asking him how he’s doing, he replied a couple of hours later saying sorry for being late and explaining why he was, and asking how I am. He seemed enthusiastic about texting, which made me more confused.

I still want to ask where we stand, though. I was thinking of ‘I have a quick question. I did enjoy the couple of times we went out and I was under the impression that you did too, but we haven’t talked in awhile and it’s making me confused.’

I don’t wanna come off as desperate, and don’t want to scare him away either. Is this a good way to phrase it, or should I change something?
