"Why does it look... reluctant to leave us?" I looked at Rufus with curious eyes.

Rufus raised an eyebrow and replied bluntly, "It's reluctant to leave you. Not us."

Touched by this, I let go of Rufus' hand to run back to the gray wolf. "Be good, okay? I'll come by to see you the next time I get the chance."

The gray wolf tugged on my sleeve and refused to let go.

Rufus was getting impatient. He walked over to me and pulled me up. "Let's go. I need to talk to you about something."

"What? What is it you need to tell me?" As Rufus pulled me away, I could not take my eyes away from the gray wolf that was left in the cave. "Rest up, Grey. Wait for me to come back!"

I was having some form of separation anxiety. This seemed to make Rufus' face gloomier, so I whipped my head back to him and asked, "So, what were you going to tell me?"

Rufus snorted, letting go of my hand and walking forward alone.
