When Leia spotted Avery, she subconsciously tried to escape, but Avery had already noticed her. "Begonia."

The word drifted toward Leia in the night breeze.

The woman's voice on the other end of the line sounded a little panicky. "Did someone approach you? Who are you with right now?"

Avery wasn't feeling well, so he only ran after Leia for a little while before slumping onto the floor, panting.

Unexpectedly, Leia turned back and ran back to him. She looked at him anxiously. "Are you okay?"

She had noticed him leaning against the flowerbed, so she thought that something happened to him.

Avery gripped her wrist. "Got you, Begonia."
