In the arcade of a commercial street.

When Maeve went to the washroom, Theo disappeared.

Most likely, he couldn't control the urge to play when he saw these game consoles.

Maeve was not afraid of him running around, or that he would meet any kidnappers.

With Theo's with

's cleverness, if he encountered kidnappers, he would probably outwit them.

She looked around and her gaze suddenly stopped on a small figure in front of the claw machine.

Since his back was facing her, she could only see the back of the little boy's head, which was covered by a cap, and his denim jacket and black pants.

Beside the little boy's feet was a pile of dolls that had just been caught. The passers-by who passed by him were envious.

Just by looking at his back, Maeve could recognize him at a a glance. This was her child.

Will looked straight ahead at the claw clip of the claw machine with a cold expression. I'm not selling them."

As soon as he finished he finished speaking, someone grabbed the back of his collar.

"My baby, when did you become so good at catching dolls? Maeve bent down and leaned towards Will's head. There was ark expectant smile on her lips. "Is there any for me?" Will didn't know Maeve. He frowned and dodged to the side uncomfortably.

Then, without looking at the pile of dolls on the ground, he walked forward with his hands in his pockets.

"My baby?" Maeve chased after him, only to find that Will's footsteps had quickened significantly.

He seemed to be deliberately avoiding her.
