Andria's POV
"Can I join you tonight?" Mel spoke, slightly opening the door to her room and peering out of it as she heard me walk into it to get my things for the sleepover at Liara's house, as usual.
"I heard that the five of you have been having a reading session, Ari. Can I join you?" she persuaded.
"Mel…" I started, but she interrupted me.
"Please, talk to her, call her, tell her that I would love to read with you all tonight. Besides, my reading partner has been executed.
I'm glad her family were pardoned for reasons of ignorance," Mel said in a low tone as she looked away, a faint look of sadness crossing her eyes.
"They didn't deserve to pay for what they knew nothing about," I replied to her.
"Concerning you joining our reading session tonight, I would have to talk to all my reading partners tonight, and if they agree to it, you may start tomorrow."
