Ryan closed the distance between him and her, surprised at the twist of events. “Elena…I didn't know it was you.”
She nodded quickly. “It's a huge surprise for me too, Ryan. Are you okay? I'm sorry for not looking before crossing the road.
He replied in a less hostile tone. “Apologies accepted. Hope you aren't hurt? I didn't hit you, did I?”
“No, I'm alright. I apologize once again. I had a lot on my mind and I was in a hurry to get out of here.”
The crowd dispersed as he led her to his car. “Where's your car? Didn't you drive?”
She tilted her head a bit at his car. “Actually, my car broke down and I wanted to use a taxi to get to your pack.”
“My pack?”
“Yes, I want to see Freya. If it's not too much trouble, would you be kind enough to let me join you in your car?”
