Chapter 13: Rin Evans 4
God, she talks too much.
I wasn’t in the mood for this. I tried giving her half-hearted replies, hoping she’d take the hint and leave me alone. But no, she just kept going, like she wouldn’t stop until she got whatever it was she wanted from me.
With a sigh, I finally turned to face her.
"Aria Collins, right?" I said, cutting her off. "Can you just tell me why you came to see me? Because, honestly, I’m not in the right mood for a chat."
Aria, who had been running her mouth at full speed, suddenly stopped and looked at me with curiosity.
Ah, damn it. I shouldn’t have asked her that. Now she’s going to ask something that’ll put me in a bad spot.
"You’re right. There is something I wanted to ask you. Can I?"
"No, you can’t."
"I wanted to ask—Wait, what?" She blinked in confusion. "But you just said—"
Aria frowned, clearly thrown off by my abrupt refusal. She opened her mouth, then shut it again, like she was struggling to process what had just happened.
Good. Maybe she’d take the hint and leave.
