LEILA AND JUNE continued walking to their friends and not looking back to the elevator. When they got closer, Tanner first caught their presence followed by the others.
With this, all of them went for a group hug and silently cried.

"ARE YOU TWO hungry? What do you want to eat? I'll cook for the both of you. Oh gosh, are you both okay? Do you wanna get some sleep while I cook your food? Do you want—"
"Wow, Stacey. How come you're so caring and you're serving for your friends? Why have you never did that to me?" Jasper says with a cute pout and everyone laughed.
"You know I hate to leave at a time like this, but I need to go. Hope y'all enjoy though!" Gina says with a smile.
"Me too. I need to rest early since I have another photoshoot tomorrow." Rena says to the group.
"Oh. Okay then."
"Hello, Rena and Gina!"
"Thanks for everything!"
"You can hang out with us anytime!"
And with that, Gina and Rena left Jasper's apartment.
"We missed you! We were so scared for you!" Howard says.
"Are you sure you're not also scared for yourself?" Jane says and everyone laughs at this.
"Thank you for helping us. We want to celebrate with you guys but..." Leila trailed.
"But we're too tired. I think our energy was suck when we played that evil game." June continued what Leila is supposed to say.
"Oh, it's okay. It's fine for us. You two should rest." Alexander says.
With that, Leila and June got up to leave. Rheanne and Max offered to drive for them, but the two refused.
The whole while, Tanner was silent. He's glad that his best friend and the girl he loves has come back. But there's one thing that has been bugging him.
What happened when they were in The Otherworld for them to be THAT tired?
