"But I would come running if you called anyway, so what is the need for worship?" he asked, and she froze. These words did not sound right.

"Besides, I like the way it sounds when you call my name," he said, and she immediately became grateful that it was dark, as her face had heated up because of his words, and she was sure it had turned red already. Mark cleared his throat, calling their attention to those about to descend the hillside, and Lydia removed herself from his arms and joined them to descend with her head lowered.

She had calmed down by the time they went to the house, and she was now pretending that nothing happened; after all, nothing really happened.

"Since we know he is in there, now what?" She asked them.

"Now, we go and catch them." Mark grabbed Ethan's camera and started walking away, but Ethan stopped with a grab of his arm.

"What if they do not open their door and call the police instead? He knows all of us; we have to think this through."

"He doesn't know me," Lydia said, and they all paused. She was right.

"Are you sure this is okay?" Ethan asked. Lydia too wondered why she had offered; now that she was deep in drama, was she obsessed with joining drama? But she had already offered; there was no going back. "What is your uncle's name?" she asked.

"Barney Glinn," Harry answered.

"Wait by the door just in case I call for you." She started to walk away, only to pause and turn to Harry. "You said your aunt is soft-hearted? It is best if she sees it live. There is no one who can claim fabrication if it is live, right? Video call your family while we go," she said, and she started leaving.

"Harry, it seems your sister-in-law is ready to meet the family," Ethan whispered to him as they saw Lydia leave. Harry sent him a look of warning before hurrying after her. He took out his phone and added his entire family to a group call. His intention was to call his immediate family, such as his mother, father, sister, and grandmother, since she was around, but he was in such a hurry that he mistakenly called his extended family group chat full of his father's two brothers, cousins, and even his aunt.
