บท 132: Respond in kind

"Fine. Let's go." Marcus stood from his lazy position and walked with her towards the group. Edward walked not far behind them.

She could see that Alex had an unreadable expression on his face when she stood beside him. He did not look unhappy nor mad to see Edward. Alex still greeted his cousin with a smile on his face. But it was never the same when he was talking to Lance or Marcus, Dani noted. 

"Hope you don't mind if I join the game," Edward announced to the group, positioning himself just beside Dani.

"The more, the merrier," Jacky shouted, responding to Edward. Unaware of the tension between Alex and Edward. 

But Dani had sensed it. She had figured it out during the party that something was going on between Edward and Alex. But they never allowed the others to notice their conflict with each other. The fight was so subtle that not everyone could see it.
