"How…are you?" After a long while of awkward silence, she started with a hesitant attempt to break it. 

"How am I?!" He replied back almost instantly as if he was ready to burst out and was just looking for a reason.

"It's okay Alex. Calm down." Raven patted his back but he didn't seem to give it any importance as his expressions remained the same. 

"Let him say it Raven. I deserve it, I'll listen." She sighed. 

"You know what, I don't wanna say anything else because I doubt we had or have any importance in your life." This time his tone sounded strange and emotionless.
