"Ok. Then, have a good night, Ria. I will see you tomorrow." He seemed disappointed, but he did not insist like the other times. He forced a smile on his lips and then turned around.
Then, Zach was gone, going down the hallway as he disappeared from her sight. She concluded that something might have happened to him. Maybe it was the girl from earlier.
Suddenly, she remembered that she thought she had seen him at the office of Mr. Stark. But she was still not sure about that. Besides, why would he abruptly leave without saying a word, and why did he not mention it just now?
"Sure, I will see you tomorrow." She responded, but she was unsure if he had heard her.
Somehow, she felt guilty for declining his offer. He was there when she needed him. Now that he seemed to need company, she could not oblige his simple request.
