"What's on your mind?" Raymond asked Alexa who was simply staring at them with no words said.
"You two." She suddenly answered. It was a rather subconscious response but that was what was in her mind. "You two act so similar that sometimes, I wonder if you two are actually related."
Her words caused the two to freeze for a second and then smiled anxiously. Rachael turned her head away, as if occupied with looking at other things, leaving Raymond to respond on his own.
"Daddy, I want to go find Romeo." She said, and Raymond felt his daughter was betraying him and trying to abandon him at such a crucial time.
"Sure, you can go." Alexa said on Raymond's behalf and he put her down. "But don't stray out of the guard's sight, okay? Don't make us worry."
"Don't worry. I won't."
They both watched Rachael run around freely and the guards going to her.
Then, Raymond looked at Alexa and said,
"She's happy."
