Failing to notice the signs

"Greetings Your Highnesses, my Lady." Roman greeted along with the two other knights. 

Suzanne, Sybil, Veronika, and Aries smiled at the knights, nodding as a gesture in receiving their greetings. Seeing the candidate's reaction, Roman and the knights stood on the side to make way for them. 

"We should go…" Aries proposed and took a step to lead them, but alas, stopped when Roman suddenly spoke. 

"Are you alright now, my lady?" he asked, ignoring the eyes of the other three candidates, and fixing his eyes on Aries. The latter looked back at him a little later, her neck twisting like rusting metal. 

'That is out of character…' Aries thought, forcing a smile on her face. 'I truly planned on helping him make up with Violet, but now that is out of my list of priorities.'

"I'm fine now, Sir Knight. Thank you for your help yesterday." Aries stayed meek, keeping her smile. "My family will surely reward you for it."
