It was like he was really paying attention to her now but she wasn't sure if it was good or bad.
She knew she had been right about the letter containing something...well, something that would impact them in some way because of how long he was taking to give it to her. When he did, she noted his posture, how he seemed to be preparing for something unpleasant to take place.
Then she read the letter, her green eyes scanning the script and the signature. She read it again and she set it down, folding it and giving it back to Cayden. Firstly, she was...oddly relieved and both disappointed that she wasn't coming back. In a weird way, Mari realized she had sort of wanted some closure from the other girl but now she would never have it.
What bothered her more was that Cayden had beenacting like...like he had lost everything in losing the Hufflepuff. She looked at him and she gave him a slightly inscrutable look. " I'm sorry about it...but I'm not. I'm glad she's gone too." She spoke honestly, not caring if he would be mad at her for the comment. " I'm sorry you're so upset, that's all." She said, and she looked at him for a moment before looking away again.
He watched her take the letter and then read it over. More than once. He sighed a little as he stared out into space as he was waiting for either her to be upset or be secretly upset like she did. She had put the letter down as she gave it back to him. He looked over at her as he couldnt really tell what was going on over there. He was a little worried, but he didnt have to wait for long to get what he thought would come.
He picked up his letter as he put it back into its pocket."Thanks...Your amazing." he told her with sarcasm as he let out a heavy sigh. He had just lost his friend and she wanted to go around telling him that she was glad that she was gone. He knew she wouldnt be happy about it but she could of at least said nothing about how excited she was. He looked over at her as he was wondering if she was being serious. Yes she was."Seriously?" he asked her. Even Kayla would of came up with something better.
