"Well... Jeremy and I... well, both of us are just..." Ryn paused. How could she say this? She was not ready to reveal their relationship yet. It was too soon.
Ryn's eyes looked around wildly, hoping she could find something to help her escape from this. Just anything.
But she could not think of anything.
Both Mrs Long and Mika leaned forward eagerly.
Ryn sighed. Her shoulders dropped. Could she keep this from them? Mika was after all her best friend. She did feel guilty keeping this a secret but this best friend of hers quite blabbermouth and hard to keep a secret to herself.
"Ryn?" Mika asked when she saw the struggle in her friend's face. Why was Ryn being so reluctant so much?
"Catherine, dear?" Mrs Long asked as well. But somehow she could guess it. She could not stop grinning widely.
Ryn sighed again. Her head lowered slightly as she nodded.
