"When did you return?" Leo asked Belle, but Clara had already run towards her and hugged her tightly.
Oh yeah! She just helped her with Sonya. Leo thought.
Even though it was obvious Sonya only said that and didn't mean it, she might still later come around because of it.

He moved closer to them and patted her head. Clara pulled back and Leo picked her up.
"Thank you, honey." He said and she hugged his neck.
"I'm happy that you're safe. I didn't follow Brother Mike because I was worried that you will get in danger again." She explained, knowing that the topic would still be brought up.
"What did I do to deserve such an angel?" Leo asked and he ran his hand through her hair and kissed her forehead.
