~ NYSSA
I looked between Aria and Rowan with furrowed brows.
I didn't hear their conversation, but it was clearly not a good one considering the way they walked away from each other.
"Do I want to know what happened?" I asked as Rowan made his way over to me and he shook her head. "That was a rhetorical question."
"Just drop it, Nyssa, honestly." There was an edge to his voice, one that I'd never heard in relation with me before.
I pursed my lips tightly and nodded. "Yeah, of course, I'm sorry for overstepping." I smoothed my hands down my shirt. "Maybe we should just head back?"
He shook his head. "You go. I already asked Eric to come take you. I have a few things I need to do."
I cocked my head to the side. His behavior was very unusual but the more I wan ted to ask, the less the words wanted to come. He pressed a kiss to my forehead and walked away, leaving me standing in the middle of the waiting area.
