Eva's eyes softened with gratitude, a weight lifted from her ethereal shoulders.
"Thank you for hearing me out, Jude. I'm here whenever you need me. Get the can and just put it in front of me, I meant Lucy. She will not have any memories of this so you take care of her. I don't need to tell you that I know you will take care of her."
Jude nodded in agreement and he smiled.
As they stood together in the midst of the forest, surrounded by the mysteries of their world, Jude felt a newfound sense of kinship with Eva. Despite the challenges ahead, he knew that they would face them with resilience and unity, a testament to the enduring power of connection in even the most extraordinary circumstances.
