Dreams though the misty lake

"You were the first to leave us anyway," Leah rolled her eyes. A mutual snort could be heard from Selah and Orion.

"You know that I can't leave my mother's side. Also," Axel walked towards Helle and leaned a bit lower so that she could see his face. "Congratulations on your engagement. I hope you take care of my grumpy little brother well." The radiant smile on his face was just as though news articles had mentioned the angelic brother, Axel Lennox.

"Thank you."

Flustered by all the attention, Helle smiled awkwardly while pulling Orion's sleeves slightly.

"Aww," Axel glanced at Helle as though she were a small animal.

Sensing the tug, Orion took a peek at his fiancé. She glowed on her face, but the unexplainable uneasiness on her face was apparent. Gently placing his hand on her shoulder, Orion stopped his siblings. "It's getting late. We shall return for now," he announced.

"Eh?!" both Leah and Axel exclaimed, and even Selah had her eyes wide.
