Rubia turned to Zayne and with a slight smile on her face said, "Yeah, it's me. It took me a long time to get here, but I..."
Whooooooooooosh.
Before Rubia could finish her sentence, Zayne rushed over to her and hugged her tightly with a happy expression. Rubia was shocked for a moment, but then she responded in the same way.
"But I'm glad I made it in time." Rubia muttered as she covered her eyes. This went on for a while until Rubia flinched from Elin's gaze, which literally pierced her.
Lucia noticed them too, but there was no jealousy in her gaze, she was looking at the situation with curiosity.
"Well, I hate to interrupt, but we don't have too much time. Come along, our table is over there." Alden pointed to the right side of the plaza, closer to the podium, where there was a large table with what seemed to be the most sumptuous food.
"Alden, I hope there's room for Rubia?" Zayne glanced at Alden.
