Thea smiled, seeing that Ruth and Rees were now on better terms with each other and her plan succeeded well. After that, they all sat in the living room, discussing random topics which came as a breather for Ruth.
Rees was saying something when his body suddenly stiffened, his eyes darkened. This time Ruth noticed how his behaviour did not put her under the pile of queries. Instead, she was calm and curious to know who was contacting him through the mindlink.
She wished it should have been one of her powers. Wouldn't it be great if she could communicate with anyone without moving from her place?!!!
Wait! Did she find it amusing?
Ruth was broken out of her thoughts when Rees's eyes turned to normal. He stood up in urgency.
"I need to go!" He told.
Thea and Ruth shared a concerned look. "Rees, is everything alright?" Thea asked.
Rees's eyes moved to Ruth before he said, "Yes. I just... need to go."
Ruth narrowed her eyes at him.
