Chapter 1468 His Sister
For the past few days, Arielle noticed that Aaron seemed to have heeded her words. When they were in class, he did not ask her any questions. Even when they were done with class, he no longer tried to strike up a conversation with her.
Even though that was what she wanted, she still felt somewhat uncomfortable with how distant Aaron was. After all, he was his younger brother. Subtly, she glanced at him before looking away.
Although she felt guilty toward him, Arielle could not bring herself to accept him. Perhaps I’d be able to accept him as time passed. Maybe, soon, I’ll be able to stand in front of him and tell him that I’m his sister.
Aaron had no idea what Arielle was thinking about. At the moment, he was intentionally stopping himself from looking at her and thinking about her. It was as though he was only able to keep her in the recesses of his mind if he did that.
Sonia noticed the odd tension between the two of them, so when classes were over, she stopped Arielle before the latter could leave.
“Is there something you’re confused about?” Arielle thought that Sonia had come to her because she needed help with her studies.
Sonia shook her head and squeezed out, “Ms. Moore, what happened between you and Aaron?” Right as those words were out of her mouth, she realized that it seemed inappropriate of her to ask that. It was as if she was trying to sound out the relationship between Arielle and Aaron. Hence, she quickly added, “I’m just curious. If it’s not something you want to talk about, you can ignore that question. It’s fine.”
Arielle narrowed her eyes and enunciated, “There’s nothing between us. There’s no need for you to overthink things.”
After a pause, she turned to look at Sonia and asked, “Do you still like him?”
Sonia was dumbfounded at that. She did not know whether or not she liked Aaron.
