"Father, what Erik had said was true. I was about to sneak out of the castle for awhile, after me and Alexi's walk. Alexi was about to go and find Erik, he spotted me going out of the castle through the gate and stopped me from sneaking away. Well, I think he didn't want us to get discovered out of the castle, which was why he was looking flustered" Nadia said with a apologetic face, looking down shamefully. She couldn't allow Erik to cover them totally as she felt wrong about it. Nadia also couldnt allow Alexi to be at fault because well, she herself pulled him along. In fact, he even might not have enjoyed his morning thanks to her. As she thought of this, her face looked rather sad, which made her look even more sorry for disobeying the rules.
