That afternoon, Ayla returned to work to find everyone quickly looking away from her.
To her surprise, no one was talking about the leaked video. But the strange looks being thrown her way told her something was off about their silence.
"Is there something I should be aware of?"
The words were barely out of her mouth when they jumped and immediately waved her off.
"Of course not! What could we possibly be hiding?"
"Exactly. It's not like we know something we're not supposed to and will spend the next few hours trying to talk to you about it, right?"
"We're more than that, and our curiosity typically means nothing. You just pay us no mind and return to your workspace, okay?"
As they spoke, one of them came up behind her and subtly nudged her toward her workspace.
Knowing what this was about, Ayla didn't resist and headed to her workspace.
Upon arriving, Rowan and Lyanna were bent over the table, looking at something.
