Rayne practically ran back to her house to tell Julian about her chance discovery. City R was definitely far away, at least a 2 or 3-day trip from here, but it was a good lead on finding a chemist.
After bursting through the front door Rayne paused to catch her breath.
Startled, Julian jumped up from the couch, "Are you okay? Did something happen?", he asked, running over to her side.
"I...No...I'm okay!", she said, panting. She finally looked up at him after a few breaths.
"I shouldn't have sprinted back, haha. But I have news to share!", she said looking at him.
"What is it?", asked Julian. He was still concerned, not sure why she was sprinting.
"I have a lead on a chemist!", she announced happily.
Julian smiled, "What? How did you find a lead, weren't you just taking a walk?".
"I'm just skilled like that", she joked, telling him the story of how she overheard the two women discussing the nephew.
