"Anna?" Runa was shocked to hear that name. "Is it so important that I have to know about it?" she said, looking away.
Runa was so drowned in the conversation that she didn't realize she followed Arden to the campus parking lot. Arden's shiny black motorbike was parked there. Two helmets hang in the back of it.
Arden put Runa's bag on the motorbike, then took off a helmet and put it on her head. "Important or not, you decide for yourself. But I have to tell you no matter what. Because there's a big chance Anna will come to you after the Purifying is done."
Strange, thought Runa. She didn't refuse when Arden put the helmet on her. Runa just blinked and shifted the position of the helmet so that it felt right on her head.
Arden took the sunglasses out of his bag and put them on. Then he handed Runa's bag to her. After that, Arden put on his helmet and got on the motorbike. "Jump on," he said, gesturing with a head motion for Runa to get on the motorbike.
