Sharing Knowledge

"Come on, I said I was sorry."

Leilani apologized for what should have been the fiftieth time.

Ellie had secluded herself to the other side of the tree at their usual spot, cradling her ears as though they could fall off at any moment.

She had not uttered a single word to Leilani ever since they got there and she could understand why.

Her ears were an angry shade of red, Leila had used both her ice enigma as well as brute strength to tug at them, not knowing who was underneath the hood.

But how was she supposed to know? Ellie was technically the one at fault here. She had snuck into her compound dressed up like burglar so she had to act.

Ellie had even refused her offer to heal her ears…

"How long are you going to mope around?"

Ellie shot her a glare before she continued carefully stroking her ear. Letting out a pained groan in the process.
