Ariana looked away from him and now focused on warming herself up from the fire pit because she didn't want to wait for an answer from him. She never cared for what he thought of her before, but she admits it's different now. So, she is getting afraid, to hear what he will say next.
She even remembers in her other life where her four brothers try hard to make her act like a lady but there is nothing they can do to change her. But lately, it's not like she's changed completely, but just, she always wants to look beautiful, she doesn't want to show her clumsiness and most importantly, she doesn't want to get into his bad side anymore.
She knows she should have put her defense up so tight in her heart so that things like this don't happen but like always that man, always manages to tear down the fence she built so easily.
