Retreat

Ethan chuckled and looked at Ivy with a smile before replying "Ooo... Calm down, sis. You are asking so many questions. How can I answer all of them? Give me a breath, okay?"

Ivy sighed seeing his playfulness and thought that he is not in danger these days which made her relax "It is all because of you. Even dad and mom are worried. Did you meet them? If not, better be ready to face their wrath."

Ethan gulped hearing the warning but his heart felt warm "Sorry Ivy, for making you all worry. But I went on a secret mission. My whereabouts should not be disclosed, I will meet uncle and aunt later and explain to them."

Ivy nodded in understanding but still nagged him "I understand but from next time at least tell us you won't be available for a few days as Gavon mentioned before he left. It will at least make us look forward. Understand?"

"Yes, Mam" Ethan saluted earning a chuckle from her.
