Had it not been for the swaying leaves, Baby Robbie and Baby Zetty would not have noticed Zayne and Emmy whispering on the forest path.

When I don't see you for even a day, I feel as though I've lost my soul. The longing I feel for you is extremely tormenting. That's why I mustered up the courage to come look for you today. I must've gone crazy for coming to Tourmaline Estate to look for you. This is too bold of me. Did I scare you?" Emmy's voice revealed too much of her sentiments.
