But Merlin Edvin didn't care about what was said.
She rushed over and tightly hugged Victoria.
Just as Victoria was about to push her away, Merlin whispered in her ear, "Thank God...you're back, you're fine, Victoria, you're back..."
Listening to her tone, Victoria could tell she was full of worry and relief.
She couldn't help but stiffen.
Uh...
Forget it, she wouldn't hold it against her.
Merlin continued to mumble and cling to Victoria, "I haven't been able to sleep these past two nights, worrying about you to death. I was so scared something would happen to you. If I'd known you were in danger, I'd have never left home, I'd rather die than leave."
"Glad you know..." Victoria attempted to push Merlin away as she was being squeezed out of breath, "Can you, can you let me go first?"
"No!" Merlin flatly refused.
"This is weird, we're both girls." Victoria didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Exactly, we're both girls, what's there to fear?" Merlin refused to let go.
