As the years pass by, everyone eventually got used to his presence, coming to a well-off decision to just live in the moment and go on with life. Your neutral lips coils into a much rather flustered one as your eyes widen at the item laid out in front of you. You've open the present Zale handed you and you're left speechless. Seeing this, said boy frowns as he tilts his head to get a better view of your expression. Did you not like what he got you? If not. Then he's willing to take it back and get you something else.

One little girl tripped, scattering the books she carried. Before anyone else could react, Nova knelt to help gather them. "Thank you," the child said shyly. Nova noticed the title of one book.

I pretended not to notice him and walked away, but he appeared at my door with gifts.
