Aveline felt fully refreshed, as she walked out of the bathroom.
"It's true," she heard, and looked up to find Riley as pale as a ghost.
"Riles!" She waved after her.
"You're really here!"
In a blink, she picked up Aveline from the ground, with strength she didn't know she possessed.
"You're here!" She kept on screaming as Aveline laughed.
"She didn't believe me when I told her you're in the big room. She even threatened to use my head as a cup after cutting it off," Freya laughed from behind them.
"I can't believe this." Riley's hands gripped Aveline's shoulders hard, as she stared all-over her.
"It's such a long story. I was just in the garden when—"
"Nope. Don't say anything just yet. Just answer one question please, did you purposely leave?"
"Oh no!" She shook her head, appalled by the thought alone. "I wouldn't do that. I want to marry Atlas."
The two cousins exhaled at the same time.
