'Now why would they all be smirking? Well, except for Callan who looks as smug as he always had been. Hmm… Oh, right! I'm with Kaiden! Is that why? Because we arrived together?'

Not wanting to be interrogated—I mean, peacefully questioned, I went over to my seat quick. The maids served the warm food after and we all began eating.

"So," Mrs. Ma began the conversation as we ate, "it seems you two spent a considerable amount of time together? Alone?"

Oh my goodness… her tone sounded so skeptical and suggestive! As if we did something n-naughty. I tried to laugh it off but their curious gazes were piercing. I peeked over to Kaiden and he was eating peacefully. How lucky of him, having the ability to properly eat in such circumstances.
