Chapter 33: An Annoyed Aria
Lillian dropped her bag somewhere in their living room before crashing face first into the couch.
Exhaustion crashing into her like a freight train.
Balancing school with OmniTech Corp has been anything but easy. Luckily she had quit her part-time job else she was sure she would’ve passed out from exhaustion by now.
The door to their apartment opened again but Lillian didn’t move a muscle or even bother looking up to see who it was.
After all, there was only two people with access to this apartment, so she didn’t need to look up to know that Aria was back.
Aria shut the door behind her with a soft click and kicked off her boots, the sound of her steps were smooth, almost as if she was tiptoeing although she was not.
There was a slight frown on her face seeing how Lillian lay on the couch but she said nothing...not yet anyway.
Lillian still didn’t move. "If you brought food, I love you. If not... I still love you, but slightly less."
There was a pause. Then, the familiar scent of something spicy hit her nose.
"I brought jollof," Aria said coolly.
Lillian’s arm shot up blindly in the direction of the voice. "Marry me."
