"Hey."
Seeing Evan act so casually dispelled some of the nervousness that Eliza had been feeling for the past few days. The blonde teenager couldn't help but heave a small sigh as she waved her hand at him and responded to his 'greeting'.
They chatted lightly a bit before Evan called for a taxi carriage which the two of them got onto. It was then that Evan clicked his tongue and spoke.
"Finally."
"huh? Finally, what?"
Eliza tilted her head to the side as she asked Evan, however, the young hero's reply was completely out of her expectations.
"Nothing much. Just that today, you look prettier than you already are on a normal basis so there were more 'pests' staring at you.
It was a bit infuriating seeing them look at you like that."
He ran a hand through his hair as he spoke, while facing away from Eliza so she would not see the expression he had on his face at the time.
'W-wh-what?!'
