"Henry, you're awake. Why are you so late today?" Upon hearing the noise, Winslet ran over and took Henry's arm. "I have been waiting for you for a long time. We are going to play together today. Have you forgotten?" Henry looked at Madeline, hesitating

"Yes"

Lucas was stunned and looked at Madeline's back.
