So she crossed her arms and said, "You know that I know that you are lying. What happened. You're making me nervous, Christopher."
"I....." he started, trying to come up with a good cover up,
"I've just had a very nice morning, that's all. I had a great cup of tea."
It wasn't a convincing lie, they both knew that. But he wasn't going to say anything to her about Violet just yet. That way, if she really had rejected his offer to be friends again and was just trying to be polite, he wouldn't be completely humiliated. I mean, it wasn't that big of a deal. And she kept secrets too. Far big secrets than just this.
He'd waited six months to talk to Violet, and Selina Skylar was going to have to be able to wait a little longer.
