Reign paused. Her frowned face, formed a weak smile afterward. "Really? You're close to him?"

Harry nodded. He had no idea if Reign was literally acting. But still, here he was, going with the flow.

"We were together since we were kids." Harry lied. Well, perhaps, he said it half truth and half lie. Why? Because Harry truly had a cousin named Aden, but, he was certain it wasn't the Aden that Reign was talking about. Or so he thought?

"Really???? So, did he come back?!" Reign was now full of hope. Her eyes sparkled and her face brightened.

Harry brows knitted. Bit by bit, he started to feel it was truly his cousin she was talking about. "Uh. No... Since he left. He didn't come back."

Reign's head lowered. "He never did. He won't come back, is he?"
