"Noelle…" Nathan felt something was off with Noelle. Normally, Noelle's eyes were unwavering, but what he could see was confusion. This confusion didn't originate on her path, but it was questioning her own self.
Noelle paused for a moment before saying with a shaking voice. "Can I… borrow your time… for a moment?"
Nathan nodded. "Sure. Where do you want to go? Right now, Selena and the others are in my house."
"Somewhere alone…"
"In that case, why don't we talk at your house? Flora is sleeping in my house, so there should be no one there."
Noelle could only nod her head.
Although he didn't know what was going on, he was sure something had happened during the time Noelle was gone. At first, he didn't think much about it, thinking Noelle was probably trying to train or something, but it looked like something much more important had happened.
Once they reached her house, Noelle sat down awkwardly, looking down as if she couldn't look Nathan in the eye.
