บท 128: Simple and perfect.

Daniel was dumbfounded. He thought he might have misheard, but when Ryan repeated his question, the realization struck him —he hadn't imagined it. Ryan had indeed asked him, in all seriousness, why Arwen had blocked him.

"Really?" Daniel asked, mockery laced with amusement coloring his voice. "You asked me here for this?" 

Ryan was already feeling unsettled inside. And when he heard Daniel taunting him, his patience snapped. "Daniel, I asked you if you knew Arwen had blocked me. If you do, tell me why?" 

Daniel stared at Ryan for a long moment before pinching the space between his brows and shaking his head. "Ryan, I have had enough of this already. Stop involving me in your personal mess. If this has nothing to do with work, I will take my leave. I have actual tasks waiting and don't have time for your delusions." He paused, watching Ryan's stony expression, then turned on his heel to leave.
