THEN, TODAY IS OUR FIRST DAY, OKAY?

Cling!

Ariana who can't calmly sip the tea after listening carefully to the question, puts down her tea cup a little harder.

"What is this about?"

Her heart can't take it anymore. I hate you, you hate me, the question brings her back to their previous life as both of them keep coming back to that 'conclusion' every time a 'storm,' comes in their relationship. She didn't want to remind herself of what she felt then for now.

"I just want to know. You, seeing my face after we being apart for so long. How did you feel about it? Are you disgusted seeing my face so much that you can't even see me in the eyes? That's all."

Ariana knows he meant it based on his intonation alone, but still, she can't see him directly.

"I won't come back to the Silver Palace if that's why you're here."

Zayn nodded to that.
