Michael looked at Lily again. His cousin avoided his gaze. Then he turned toward Arianne, who merely offered him an innocent smile.
Michael's mouth twitched.
In the end, he gave up. After all, Aunt Mia was an adult.
Whatever her reasons for suddenly becoming interested in obtaining a Class, it was ultimately her decision. And if Teacher Brian really had something to do with it... Well, that was another matter entirely.
"Whatever."
Michael waved his hand.
"In any case, we'll be seeing her soon. I'll hear what she thinks directly from her."
"Okay!"
Lily nodded immediately, looking rather pleased that he hadn't continued questioning her.
"Then we'll be leaving, Cousin."
"Mm. Take care."
"Don't worry!"
Lily smiled. Timi, who had remained relatively quiet throughout their conversation, also stepped forward slightly.
"See you later."
Michael nodded.
"Just remember what I said."
"I will."
Just as the two were about to leave, Arianne suddenly stood up.
