CHAPTER SIXTY-NINE: Melting face
Ariel just finished applying her makeup as usual and was ready to go out, when her phone rang, it was Leo.
Thinking it is something from the organization, Ariel immediately picked it up, "Hello." She said through the speakers while checking the vanity mirror In case there was any mistake to correct.
"Ariel." Leo's voice sounded and Ariel instinctively knew that something was wrong.
"What's wrong?" Ariel asked holding the phone with her hand and focusing her attention on the call, it sounded serious, could it be Jason?
"I don't know how to put this lightly." Leo paused, playing with the cigarette in his fingers while staring at his laptop with pursed lips.
"What's it? Say it directly, is it Jason?" Ariel asked, even though she tried to sound strong she still felt jittery wondering what is wrong.
"Not Jason." Leo replied almost hissing, must everything be about that boy to her.
