While the classmates gasped at Aria's response, she noticed Alan nod at somebody as greet and saw Finn too nod.
"How do you know him? He is so annoying, irresponsible, headless, dumb man." Aria growled for the morning squabble.
Finn: "..."
'What a great introduction!' Finn thought and all laughed hearing her.
A girl said, "Damn, we didn't know Alia could cry, be happy, and even joke." Then she laughed with others leaving Aria speechless.
'When did I joke?' She saw Finn gloating and realized they thought she was humoring about Finn when it was the fact.
Unwilling to share Alan's time with anyone, Aria pushed him towards the car, "Let's go."
Alan purposefully asked holding her back, "Won't you bid your friends?"
'Friends!?' Aria bit her lips while others chuckled, "Mr.Alan, Alia never spoke to anyone unless it's college work. She shooed everyone away even if we try to be close."
