Claire smiled politely, though there was a hint of awkwardness.
"I'm Claire, thank you for joining us."
Her gaze shifted to Eliza, who was now smiling more warmly. Eliza tucked a few strands of her black hair behind her ear, then gazed her almost similar red eyes towards Claire with interest.
"I'm Eliza, as he said," Her soft voice echoed, extending her hand towards Claire while her other hand pointing at Zayn.
Claire took the outstretched hand, feeling the genuine warmth from Eliza's grasp.
Ethan nodded casually towards Zayn, looking calm even though Claire could seehis eyes held something hard to interpret deep within it.
"I'm Ethan, a wanderer." He casually said.
"Nice to meet you," Zayn replied, throwing Eliza a meaningful look, as if giving her a subtle warning to limit herself in this conversation.
