Do you still hate me for that?

My mother doesn't show any reaction. She must have guessed that I took someone's help. "Tell me everything."

"It's a student in my class." I bend down my head and stare at the floor. "He found me in the maze and helped me get out of it."

"Did you thank him or ask him to get you out of Nether?" My mother inquires with a soft voice.

Did I thank Killian? I can't recall anything like that. "He asked me to become his friend. So, I accepted his friendship. He didn't ask for anything else. Also, Killian said that he was visiting his home in the fae world."

"What does he look like?" She probes further. "Does he have dark hair?"

"Yes." I wonder what it's about. "Killian has dark hair and pale skin."

"He must be from the Unseelie court, or he's a wilding." My mother inhales sharply. "Being a friend with any fae isn't good, especially someone from the Unseelie court."
