Crystal's POV:

Ever since Flora left, I had been restless. It had been for a long time, but there was still no sign of her coming back. Something must have gone wrong, I thought, otherwise I would have heard from her already. Anxious, I started pacing in the room. Arron was also affected by my anxiety that he skipped breakfast and sat quietly on the sofa to keep me company.

Just as I was ready to bolt out the door to go look for Flora, someone suddenly knocked. I quickly opened the door and saw Flora and Joanna walking towards me, talking and laughing.

"Why are you two..." Flora shook her head at me the instant I opened my mouth.
