Alice suddenly opened her eyes and found Devon standing in front of her. She touched the scarf.
"How are you here?" She asked and he helped her to her feet.
"I am a teleportation user, after all." He said.
"Ah, makes sense." She said, making sure her footing was right. "And your guild and brother?"
"I did all I could for them and rushed to your side as soon as I could. But it seems I wasn't fast enough." He said with a remorseful expression. "Please forgive me, and... Happy New Year."
Alice was mad for a moment but then it melted when she knew she couldn't have everything she wanted. Devon was a guy who had a brother to take care of and an entire guild under his wing. So, she could not monopolize him to herself every single time, right?
"Well, I forgive you." She said. "But before I wish you the same, tell me, did you do this?" She asked, referring to the snow that was falling and he smiled.
