[One unnecessary breakfast reference and a quick trip upstairs later, Hinata and Faize are, once again, closed off inside Faize's room to talk about a motive that struck a little too closely. Faize is having the weirdest sense of reverse deja vu right now.]
[...he still really doesn't want to talk about it though. Even though he's accepted the inevitable and agreed to come upstairs, he doesn't immediately tell Hinata what he saw in the crystal ball. He fidgets with his sleeve a little as he takes a seat on the edge of his bed. His room is much the same as it always is, though Hinata will notice an open jar of origami stars on his bedside table that's definitely a new addition. For some reason, there's a single star sitting on the table itself, next to Alisha's paper flower.]
Before I...answer your question, can I ask you one of my own?
[Is he trying to delay? Yes. Yes, he is.]
