Selena sighed and rubbed her forehead, feeling a bit exasperated. But maybe it wasn't the right moment to push the subject too far?

Before she could decide, Maria spoke up. "There's really nothing much to say. Sidney used to have feelings for Aveline, but she's always been in love with Lucas. Now, he's interested in me, although I suspect there might be other factors at play. But that's all in the past now."
