Zeke's heart quivered at the sight of a silver-haired woman standing several steps away behind Ruka. His entire being froze at the sight. It was like he could not believe what his eyes were seeing. For a moment, everything in him – his heartbeat, his mind, his every sense stopped working and was in stasis.

He believed that his eyes must have been playing tricks on him. He must be missing her so much that his mind had conjured up a very life-like image of her, to the point that he was even hearing her voice! That was the only logical explanation he could think of right now. And yet… everything within him seems to start trembling. Just the sight of her rocked his entire world in an instant. It was like an explosion of a myriad of emotions filled him up. Wonder. Excitement. Shock. Confusion. Doubt. Anxiety. And… overwhelming love.
