Surprised by his response, Zachary quickly said, "Alright, it's a deal. I'll keep a close watch on you."

It was a long, difficult night. The next morning, he got up early and was taken to kindergarten by Ray.

Meanwhile, Terrence fled back to Tirion overnight. He was terrified. He couldn't understand why Xavier had told him to find Yvette when they were living together.
