Ariana stilled, her eyes wide in surprise. “What? Hair loss?” she echoed, unable to wrap her head
around his statement.
Theodore’s gaze fell on her confused face. With a sigh, he gently ran his fingers over her hair. “It all
started after the accident,” he admitted, a flush of embarrassment coloring his cheeks. “I’ve been
dealing with sleepless nights. The insomnia, it’s… causing my hair to thin.”
His words hung heavily in the air, his voice wavering with discomfort.
Clearing his throat, he added, “So, the medication I’ve been taking, it’s supposed to help with the
sleeplessness and slow down the hair loss.”
Ariana remembered something about this. Holden had mentioned the medicine was for treating
insomnia too. But still, something didn’t sit right with her. If the medication was only for insomnia and

What are you doing? Downing hair growth tonics on the sly?” Her voice laced with frustration as she
attempted to make sense of the perplexing situation.

transplant.”
Ariana held back her chuckles, finding the situation a blend of amusing and mildly frustrating. She eyed
Theodore seriously before responding, “Alright, for now, I’1l choose to believe you.”
However, before Theodore could let out a sigh of relief, she promptly added, “But if I find out you’ve
been fibbing, what happens then?”
Caught off guard, Theodore stuttered, failing to piece together a coherent response.
Ariana Looked at him sternly, her voice ringing with conviction, “If I discover you’ve been lying, that’s it.
No more talks, no more us. You won’t see me around anymore.”
Theodore froze at her words, a sharp pang of dread shooting through him. Nonetheless, he managed
to plaster a smile on his face, chuckling weakly at her ultimatum.
