[That was why Riye was here, and so far...it was slow, but Ethan was working genuinely hard. That isn't something she can turn down. She was a teacher before, and she taught a group of empty faces Shakespeare. She could teach a guy who seemed to initially care as opposed to growing to care. She really appreciated the spirit, even in her own way.

Expect her teachings to be fair. Riye was sure to give Ethan the floor to see how he understood things or not, before redirecting if the later were true. If he was dead wrong, then she was actually patient if he was willing to correct himself.

Considering she got a lovely jar of jam, it was actually a sweet enough gesture. There was a tiny curve of the mouth before getting right to it.]

But really, and I mean this as well as I could, you look like you fell face first on pavement.
