Geoffrey's unexpected guidance

Aria's pov

We stared at each other for a while before I cleared my throat.

"I have been meaning to talk to you about something,"

Apprehension crossed his eyes before he shook his head, "Of course, anything."

"I haven't gotten the time since the last trial, the ceremony and the craziness of it all. But the letter you wrote me, I don't know what to make of it,"

"If you are going to ask me who it was, I won't tell you. I overheard it and decided to warn you. It is no secret that you might have people who dislike you because of your zeal but I refuse to be a party to it especially when I can warn you."

"I understand and I thank you for that. It made me more careful and observant."

Surprise showed on his face, "You are welcomed,"

Now that it was solved, I started seeing him in a new light. Maybe he was looking out for me like he said. It was nice to know that someone was doing that.
