Aiden began walking toward Oliver. And the moment he reached where he was standing, he placed his palm on his right shoulder, and uttered,
"Oliver, I'm going through a lot".
Oliver stood there glancing at him without knowing what to say for seconds, and this was what he managed to say,
"You can tell me about it, I'm your friend, Aiden".
"Oliver, this is something I can't tell you and Ava".
..And he decided to lie at that moment.
"This is something concerning my family, it can't be revealed. I've known since back then that you and Ava must have been wondering what was going on with me numerous times,
As said, it is something I can't reveal to you guys. But I want you to know, I'm going through a lot".
Yes, he was going through a lot, but it wasn't connected with his family at all...
Oliver's heart melted immediately, and he started feeling guilty for what he and Ava were doing to Aiden today. His voice resounded,
"I'm sorry for today".
