319 Fragile

"You are walking up and down these stairs while carrying me a thousand times. I believe that you could even do this with your eyes closed," Ayana said with a bit of mocking in her voice.

"You also use this stair every day, but you still stumble and break your foot. People call that an accident for a reason, dear." Luca's calm with a hint of playfulness was making Ayana's earshot. She did not need to be reminded of her incompetence over and over again.

Ayana took a deep breath and then exhaled with her mouth to ease the frustration in her heart. The thought that she was the one to lose her composure and lose in an argument with Luca really irritated her.

Ayana was so angry that she did not say anything and kept her mouth shut until they were out of the tower and headed toward the dining hall.

"You can put me down now," Ayana said when Luca did not show any sign to put her down.
