I got a chance to talk with Aiden as I wished the following day. Despite being so against it, Caspian allowed me in a condition that he'll be with us and that got us to our current round-table situation, staring at each other, each waiting for each other to speak up. While Aiden looks so confused on what's happening, Caspian sat unbothered as usual.
"What is it now, Caspian?," Aiden finally asked.
Before Caspian could answer, I opened my mouth to stop further bickering. "Can...can we talk alone? First?"
Caspian made a confused look to me that gave reason to Aiden to chuckle, amused all by himself.
"You can stay over there, watch us. I just need some time to talk to him privately," I persuaded him.
Still skeptical, he stood from his seat without a word then waited near the entrance
