"Athena, what's the problem? Why are you frowning?" Aiden asked worriedly, stepping closer to Athena in the elevator, trying to peer down at her phone, which she was frowning at intently.
When Athena said nothing in response, he leaned down further, his eyes scanning the screen for any clues. However, due to the dim light illuminating the phone's screen, all he could make out was that it was on, and that was about it.
Aiden paused, his lips parted in concern, and decided to wait. He didn't have to wait long, because just then, Athena let out a deep sigh of frustration and pocketed her phone, stepping backward and relaxing tiredly against the elevator wall.
The sound of her sigh seemed to fill the small space, and Aiden's concern grew. He wanted to reach out to her, to comfort her, but he waited for her to open up to him. He needed to know what was troubling her first.
