"You sure he's still there waiting for you to catch him, huh?"
Arthur Lindsey continued walking down the mountain slope without turning, his figure steady against the silent desert sky full of stars.
"...You're right," Ella Lacey tapped her little head and complained, "I'm really stupid..."
"Ella is already very smart," Arthur Lindsey smirked.
"...Where? You must be mocking me."
"Arthur, I owe you an apology... I was too headstrong just now, getting separated from you in the crowd..."
"It's not your fault; the old man just disguised himself too well," Arthur Lindsey as if he held no grudges.
Ella Lacey's eyes reddened again.
To her, Arthur was simply a man who appeared cold on the surface but was warm-hearted inside!
No matter what mistakes she made, he seemed to forgive her.
