"Really? What a generous man," Madison exclaimed after hearing Roland's story.
"Could it be that they are actually your family?" She asked curiously.
Roland smiled and said, "I don't think so."
After all, only he knew that he was referring to an inanimate object like a System, and not a real person.
"You're very lucky," Madison said.
"Oh right, can you keep this a secret? I don't want the others knowing the truth," Roland stated.
"Sure, no problem," she said.
"Oh right, where are you going next? Do you always go home, now that you no longer need to do part-time work?" she continued.
Roland shook his head as a response. He and Janine would go straight to Sparkling Buds, fetch Stacey and go home together after Sparkling Buds' closing hour.
"Hmm? Oh right, now that you truly don't have part-time work to attend to, my offer still stands. Do you want to walk with me on our way home?" She said with a smile.
