Romeo wasn''t around, so Joyce and Mavis could eat to their heart''s content.

“Mmm, this is delicious. Is it coated with salted egg yolk? It smells so good."
Mavis always shared the tastiest bites with Arabe.
When Joyce came across something scrumptious, she''d share it with Arabe too. "Such a pity, If only
Nydia was here, she''s such a foodie."
“No problem, we can pack some for her."
“Be, you''re the best! But won''t we embarrass you? Won''t the manager think we''re like starving
ghosts reincarnated, acting as if we''ve never seen good food before?"
Not only were they feasting like kings, they were also nning on taking some home.
“Sharing good food with friends is nothing to be ashamed of.” Arabe didn''t see a problem and even
showed her support, “If there’s anything else you like, I can have it packed for you."
“Be, you''re too kind"
In the end, they left with full bellies, and the manager had the kitchen prepare some extra dishes for
them to take away.
A helicopter ride back to school would have been too conspicuous, so Romeo arranged for a car to
wait for them at the resort''s entrance.
Knowing that Arabe was taking her ssmates home, Romeo gently cradled her face and said, “Let
me know once you''re done with school stuff, and I''lle pick you up."
“Okay"
“Doom''s gang will likely make a move soon, so stay cautious.” Romeo looked into her bright eyes,
warning her, “If there''s danger, find a way to contact me like you did today."
“I got it"
“Try not to get hurt.” Romeo continued, still holding her face, “Take care of your wounds, don''t let therm
get wet, and change the bandagester."
Arabe couldn''t help butugh at his fussing.
Romeo caught on to her amusement and chuckled, “Am I nagging too much?"
“No"
Romeo leaned down to give her a quick peck on the lips, his eyes filled with reluctance, “Alright, you
should go now."
Arabe finally got in the car.
Romeo personally closed the car door for her, reminding her to message or call him once she arrived.
“Alright"
Arabe knew he had to deal with the guys they caught today, so she motioned for him to get back to
work.
“So, Mr. MeMillian, shall I depart now?” The driver was eager to start the car, but wasn''t sure if Romeo
was done with his instructions.
“Make sure you get them safely back to school” Romeo advised, “Drive slowly on the way."
“Okay, Mr. McMillian"
Arabe waved at him, and it wasn''t until Romeo''s figure had shrunk to a dot in the distance that Joyce
and Mavis began to tease her.
“Be, Romeo really cares for you, he''s giving so many instructions for such a short journey."
“1 feel like even our driver, Hans, is feeling the pressure, I can teil he really cares about you."
“You better call him once we get back."
Half an hourter.
As soon as Arabe got back to school, she received a call from Grandpa Beck.
“Hey, Arabe, where are you? We''ve made some progress on Carol''s antidote. I''ve had a major
breakthrough"
