Just as the two of them were returning from the cafeteria to the Surgery Center, chatting and laughing, they passed by the elevator. The moment a man walked out from inside and made eye contact with Aria, a smile broke out on his somber face. “Aria!”

“Like just nodding and saying hi when we were in school, I don’t think it’s a big deal.”
He was stunned.

He took a step back unsteadily, “Are you going to be so heartless?”
“Were you not heartless to me?”
With that, Aria gave a slight smile, pulled Penelope past him, and walked away straight.
