"Um… I…" Archer was stunned. Before, he would have jumped on that chance, but now, he didn't want to. Why? He was not sure.
"Sorry! I was just… asking. If you don't want to go, it's okay," stammered Aria.
"No, no, I am in," smiled Archer.
"May I have your phone number?" smiled Aria.
Archer happily exchanged his number and went towards his cab. Aria stood near her car, smiling at him. Archer sat in the car, and his journey started. He knew he had to go to his house before going to the federal plaza. So, he simply gave his address to the cabby.
He reached his home and waited for some time. If anyone from the Hall family was following him, they would see that he went to his home, and he would be safe. While waiting for the time to pass, he cooked something for himself and after he was done eating. He looked out his window. Life was moving on like always.
