If Eradan hadn't thought of a way to make up a lie after the first time he had been asked such question by his father. Currently, he would be as speechless as a log of wood. Even if he was to come up with such lie, it wouldn't do any good than saying the truth. Or maybe he could just use another statement probably used to evade all statements.
Anyways, an unavoidable answer was needed of Eradan.
Eradan, "I do not know."
This was the only option he had. Feign ignorance.
"...?"
"...?"
Finding Eradan's reply unsatisfactory, Tessa threw a confused look after a moment. Her fingers still braiding the youths hair which became more elegant than ever. And slowly engraving his side features with so uch beauty and delicacy.
Feeling the silkiness of his hair on her fingers, the lady was tempted to probe further. "What do you mean by you do not know?"
