Idiot

"Really?!" Clara leaned toward Ri, shifting her long blue-silver hair away from her ear. "You really are!" Clara snapped her head back, looking for Dyon. "Dyon! Why didn't you tell me you married an el –"

Clara's words caught in her throat when she saw Dyon hugging Madeleine. She couldn't see his face, not clearly anyway, but she could tell that it was a deep moment between them. At the very least, Dyon wasn't hugging her just for the sake of hugging her. That realization made Clara suddenly think of something else. Maybe Dyon had needed someone like Madeleine to open him up… If there had never been a Madeleine, would Dyon still be burying everything inside like he usually did?

Ri saw Clara's reaction and could only smile, taking her arm and continuing to walk forward with her.
