Surprise!

The following day.

Helen put some clothes in the traveling bag. She's ready to go home to her husband in Cirmeald East District.

Helen ate lunch first before she went to the bus station at 1:30 in the afternoon.

She decided to surprise her husband. She didn't video chat with him for two nights straight, telling him a lie that she was tired and not feeling well. Peter accepted her alibi without asking so many questions.

She will arrive at the Cirmeald East District in two hours!

She's getting excited at the same time terrified of what Peter's reaction will be after she will tell him the truth. She sent a message to Arthur, informing him that she was on board the bus going to her husband's place.

A few minutes later.

Arthur replied with a short message, telling her good luck and to call him if she needs help.

She replied, thanking him for his understanding of her situation.
