"So... what is it that you wanted to talk about?"
I asked Diana, as we moved across the market, taking in the view of its immense diversity.
From weapons to potions coupled with the delicacies of food and the sight of colourful clothes... the market had everything that one might need.
"Talk? I just wanted to visit this place, but doing so alone would have been boring."
Lightly shrugging her shoulders, Diana walked beside me, her face not having the slightest hint of deceit.
This girl...
"Why didn't you ask Alicia to accompany you?"
Just as I asked the question, a strong scent of roasted meat hit my nose, but I didn't let it distract me.
"She... was busy with some matters."
Diana replied in a subdued voice, her head tilted to the side, not willing to look into my eyes, as I watched her closely.
Were the matters related to Noah—
"Is she with Noah?"
Despite not wanting to ask, the question left my mouth before I could process the words.
