บท 194: Crystal’s Target

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 

Crystal was no longer as meek and uncertain in her own insights as she had been before. It was easy to see that Dixie wasn't just being condescending, but was actually a little gloomy.

She couldn't tell whether the girl knew what Emilia was up to, but it was obvious that the girl wouldn't have told her even if she knew.

Dixie rolled her eyes before tapping the roof of the car, still holding the door open for Crystal. "Get in already, I don't have the time to wait around for you all day, do I? We still need to get to school."

The blonde girl couldn't help but frown as she reluctantly took a seat in the back of Dixie's car, and the dark-haired girl followed before shutting the door close and motioning for the driver to start. 

It didn't take long for the silence between them to get awkward, and in the end, it was Dixie who broke it with a sigh.  "Actually, I'm sorry about what I said earlier."
