"Good idea," Aya stepped to the side so that he could get the herbs out of the backpack too. As she did, she felt a sudden thought overtake her mind. [i]Does my hair look okay? I didn't brush it after I woke up...[/i] She bit her lip, trying to distract herself from it. What a ridiculous thing to think about it. Perhaps it was something about Destin being here. Not that she really cared when any of the Rabins would see her with messy hair. And he was just like them, right? A friend?
"Did you have any herbs left?" she blurted out in a higher tone than usual, desperate to distract herself from whatever terrible conversation was happening inside her head.
