"You've never watched them?"
Rory arched an eyebrow, her fingertips lightly stroking the smooth line of his jaw as suspicion flickered in her gaze.
"If you've never watched them, then how did you know about so many links?"
Yuel's eyes immediately darted away.
The faint blush that had only just faded from his ears quietly returned.
"I..."
He looked at Rory and stumbled over his words for several long seconds without managing to form a complete sentence.
The guilty expression on his face was practically a confession.
Rory watched him with amused patience.
She didn't rush him.
She simply continued holding his chin and waited.
Under the pressure of her unwavering gaze, Yuel finally surrendered.
Drawing a deep breath, he looked as though he were making a difficult decision before explaining in a voice noticeably lacking confidence.
"Those things... actually..."
He hesitated.
"They were made by a friend of mine."
"A friend?"
Rory stared at him in disbelief.
