"Okay," Jaden said with a shrug. "Anyway, this whole Dane thing? It's a huge deal. Whether you and Leonhardt are lovers or not, you can keep denying it. But this? This is hot gossip." He grinned as he sat upright again, excitement dancing in his eyes.

"Why is it hot?" Kaelith asked with a raised brow.

"Oh… you missed that part in our departmental course you're taking with me. Anyway, I'll just fill you in. We were given an assignment," Jaden said, adjusting his position on the bed.

"And what's it? How does that assignment make me meeting Dane a hot cake or whatever?" Kaelith asked, looking warily at Jaden.

"Oh… that's because the assignment is about interviewing influential people in society and making a documentary about them," Jaden explained, gesturing with his hands.

"Oh..." Kaelith mumbled, rubbing his forehead. "So, you think interviewing my boss as an assignment makes it a hot cake?"
