ASTRID'S eyes widened a bit when he saw the name of the one requesting a video call. But before he could answer it, he heard Reas shouting from outside the room.
"Aster, I'm going out for a run!"
"Okay!" Astrid answered automatically.
When he heard the front door opening and closing, he clicked the 'accept' button on his Terminal screen. Wulfric's handsome face appeared. Before he could greet him, Wulfric beat him to it.
"Aster, are you okay?" he asked in a tight voice. His brows furrowed, his mouth drawn into a tense line, and his eyes wide with fear, he wore the expression of someone deeply worried.
Astrid was startled by the strong reaction Wulfric was showing right now. If others would see Wulfric in this state, they would think Astrid was in a mortal danger or something.
