Dylan nodded.
Ben was as happy as a child.
"Yay! Yay! Dylan says I'm not stupid! Ahhh!" Ben was overjoyed.
Seeing him so cute, Dylan couldn't help but smile.
He suddenly realized that although this place was a bit poor, it was very nice.
Surrounded by green hills and clear water, with vegetables growing by the door, it had a lovely pastoral feel.
As dusk approached, Amanda returned from the fields, looking worried.
"Ben, is Jon back yet?" Amanda asked.
"No, I haven't seen him all day!"
"That child has always had a strange temper. He ran out last night and hasn't come back yet. I'm worried sick!"
It was Sunday, so there was no school. She wondered where he had gone.
"Mom, maybe I should go look for him," Elena suggested, coming over.
"That would be good. Otherwise, I can't rest easy. My eyelid keeps twitching; I feel like something bad is going to happen."
"Who is Jon close with?"
"I know that! It's Leon Brown from the Brown family. They always play together!" Ben chimed in.
"Okay! I'll go check the Brown family home. Don't worry!"
As Elena prepared to leave, Dylan called out.
"Elena!"
Elena turned to look at him. "Is there something else?"
"Be careful on the road!" Dylan cautioned.
"I know."
Dylan watched her retreating figure. In that moment, how he wished he could recover quickly!
That way, he could accompany Elena.
Elena went to Martha's house first and found Leon sneaking out.
Elena followed him and blocked his path.
"Who... who are you?" Leon stared at the strange girl in front of him.
