"I'm...not really sure you would believe me, if I told you, Dia."
No nicknames, no flourish; Mari just gives her an awkward smile as she fidgets. This isn't really the way she imagined this coming out; not that it'll be anything new, once she says it. It's just that Dia will have to look at it in a new light.
Kablillion-and-first time's the charm, maybe? That's what she wants to say to herself, to Dia. But now, when the atmosphere is so heavy, in this empty hallway as the rain comes down against the windows, and everything is so serious, she can't help but be a bit nervous about it, as unlike her as it is. Mari Ohara doesn't crack under pressure, not usually, but, she can feel her gut wrenching as she tries to take a step forward. This time will be different. And no matter how Dia interprets it, it'll change things between them.
After what happened today, she's not sure how to feel about that.
