Chal's question took Aria by surprise. She never thought she would be asked such a question out of nowhere.
Chal watched the girl's expression change with clear amusement but she didn't say a single more word since she was seriously curious about the answer. Every girl that is around Kai showed endless affection toward him for one reason or another so she wanted to know if Aria was the same.
From what she could see, however, Aria didn't seem to be as close from Kai as the other girls. Being very experienced in love, Chal noticed the weird relationship between Kai and Aria. The two didn't seem to particular hate each other but they also don't seem to be close enough to be considered lovers.
'Something about this feels fishy. I want to get down to it.' Chal thought to herself secretly.
"I… We're acquaintances. That's it." Aria wanted to say something different but then changed her mind and decided to just say the same thing she just said.
