Hi guys!
The narrator tells about something that happened in the past. When she first met the sidekick they weren't speaking. So I have this sentence:
When he had arrived at the orphanage—we were both twelve—I hadn’t been speaking with him.
My question is about the second half of the sentence (I assume "had arrived" is correct since this indicates the beginning of the flashback). Should it be " hadn’t been speaking" or "wasn't speaking" or "didn't speak"?
Thanks in advance!
