The atmosphere fell silent. Anindya glanced at him with a sweet little smile, while Wiro glanced at her with a suspicious expression. After two minutes of intense glances, Wiro spoke again.
"Listen, whatever happened to Julian, I have to know!" Wiro said in a slightly heavy tone.
Before continuing, Wiro lowered his gaze.
"...Because I owed him a debt from junior high school" Wiro continued, his voice low but still audible to Anindya.
Anindya, still glancing at Wiro, began to roll her eyes—looking ahead, then closing them.
"I see, you really are his best friend, huh" Anindya said softly.
Hearing this, Wiro smiled softly.
"Well, the point is, you can relax. Julian's injuries aren't too serious, and Ms. Lavendina said he just needs rest—he'll probably be back at school tomorrow in good health" Anindya said softly.
