For a while, Lucia just looked at Arthur, not saying anything and not answering.
Arthur couldn’t understand Lucia’s strange behavior and indifferent attitude. She obviously had no intention of talking yet, so he took a deep breath and decided to ask some questions that he was eager to know first, “You know when I went back to USA, right?”
“I know.” It was a while before Lucia finally spoke up and answered.
“You know it but why didn’t you contact me?” asked Arthur.
Lucia was silent again.
Arthur asked again, “Have you and Theodore been safe all this time?”
“Hmm.” Lucia replied with a nod.
“Where’s he?” Arthur asked again.
“Asleep. Keep your voice down.” Mentioning Theodore, Lucia seemed to speak more, and Arthur seized the opportunity to ask again.
“Why haven’t you been in touch with me?”
This time, Lucia chose to be silent again. Smart as Arthur soon found out. Lucia was not unwilling to talk to him, but just kept avoiding talking about the lost connection.
