Sylvia's POV:

As expected, Rufus and I found Alva in the abandoned children's park with Felix. Together, they were eating Alva's favorite tiramisu cake at the stone table.

As soon as Alva heard my voice from afar, she instantly put down her fork and hopped off the bench, making her way to me.

"I'm here, Alva!" I smiled. I crouched down and caught her in my arms.

Alva nestled her face into my neck and placed her little hands on my arms. "Young lady, you finally came to visit me!"

I playfully bounced her up and down. "Of course. Have you been eating well, Alva?"

"Yes, I have! For two days, I've been eating pizza! My favorite!" Alva nodded enthusiastically, her lips still reddish pink from the coldness of the cream.

I brought out my handkerchief and wiped her mouth. I then scooped her up and walked back to the stone table.

Felix was standing there nervously. He didn't seem to know what to do with his hands and feet. His eyes, which looked very similar to Alva's, flickered with helplessness.
