A second later, red tainted her cheeks. "Ah~, I remember the two love birds flirting~," Athanasia mumbles in a sing-song voice.

Arius, who was writing at the desk beside Athanasia, chuckled at the unexpected declaration of his sister. "What was that about?" He leans against his hand, a finger tapping on the letter he was writing.
