With everything set into motion, we three suggest to Barry that he will be taken under the protective wing of Lavian and Alexa, our next-door neighbors, for the meantime.
After all, these three all have been through rough times themselves.
He quickly says yes, as he needs a comfortable and secure place to stay, and the apartment itself is as secure as it gets.
"And also… I honestly… want to find love myself. Maybe either one of these women will be the one for me."
Leigh just chuckles, "Tee hee. Who knows."
We three then go home, quickly hiding Barry from the probably sharp eyes of the bullies.
Alright. The coast is clear. There are none of these pursuers stalking him.
Once we head to the apartment, we see both Lavian and Alexa anticipating us all.
Lavian initiates, "Good evening. Let me guess… this guy needs protection like we did?"
I facetiously answer, "You sure can read my mind, huh?"
