The shopping ended faster than she thought. Angela's mind was restless the whole time. She had called both Taros and Kaito, but neither of them answered. A strange feeling settled in her chest. Something was wrong. No matter how much she tried to push it away, her heart kept whispering the same thing—something bad had happened to Eliza.
"You seem restless. Are you alright?" Bellezza asked as they sat down in the restaurant inside the mall.
"I'm fine, aunt," Angela said with a small smile that faded too quickly. She tried to stay calm, but worry was eating her up. What if her instincts were right about the boys? What if they had done something terrible?
"You called me aunt," Bellezza said softly, her eyes lighting up. She put her arm around Angela and kissed her forehead. "I've waited so long to hear that. Thank you, my love."
