Since everyone learned at the dining table that Alliana and Javier would go after lunch, no one interrogated Javier or make things hard for him.
Before Javier left, Annie went to him to strike up a conversation.
"Are you guys going to leave now?"
Javier nodded. "Yes. Thank you for having me. The meal was delicious."
Annie smiled in return. "I should be the one thanking you. I forced you to stay for the night and kept you until breakfast. I hope you can visit us again. It is very pleasant to have you here."
"Of course." Although Javier said that, he kept in mind that he would not visit again. He planned to keep his distance from Alliana as much as possible after today.
"Oh, right. Are you going to pass by City F?"
City F was where Arch and Angel's university was. At the dining table earlier, Angel mentioned that she and Arch would go to the school today due to their project.
Javier caught the idea. "Yes. It's on the way."
