"If everyone thought the sway, then the world would be in chaos." Reuben fell quiet at this. Naomi had every right to persist in her method.
Half an hour later, the couple arrived home. Brendan remained lost in thought with his brows furrowed. Despite being covered in blood, Brendan remained silent as they walked back.

"You could have just said you wantto stay.” Most of the tm Naomi's goofiness was merely an act to lighten the mood.
Watching Brendan soak in the water, memories flooded back, including their school days. They were close back then, and Brendan had gotten into many fights for her. If it weren't for that one time, if...
Naomi beclost in thought and fell silent. Brendan sighed heavily," was afraid wouldn't make it in time." Naomi snapped out of her thoughts at this and turned to Brendan. "It's okay. I got out fine both times, didn't I?" Brendan sulked. "I wasn't the one who saved you last time." Silence enveloped them at Brendan's words.
That was true. Brendan wasn't the one who saved Naomi last time.
