Crystal's POV:
In the afternoon, as I got ready to take Arron for a walk in the garden, I spotted Flora walking up to me with a huge stuffed bag in her hand. Warren trailed her with a scowl.
I grabbed Arron's hand and walked toward them. In a confused voice, I asked, "Don't you have to attend the summit today?"
After the parade, a summit was held by the packs for several days. The agenda was usually exchanging experiences or resources. I was worried about coming face-to-face with Rufus, so I pretended that I was unwell and didn't attend it.
Warren and Flora attended the summit the past few days ago. It was quite a surprise that they skipped it and came to see me today.
"A meeting is never as important as my bestie! You're going to return to the border pack in a few days. I have already discussed with Warren that I'm spending our remaining days here with you!" Flora replied gleefully.
I instantly understood the reason for Warren's scowl. I thought to myself that he was very attached to Flora and couldn't stay apart from her for one moment.
Noticing the little boy beside me, Flora immediately crouched down and said, "Hello Arron, I'm Flora."
Arron politely greeted her back, "Nice to meet you. I'm Arron."
Flora was so amused by the seriousness on Arron's face that she burst into laughter. Then she pulled Warren down and said, "This old man is Warren."
Arron was puzzled as he asked, "Aren't you a couple?" Hearing his question, Warren's face darkened. He instantly blurted out, "We are a couple and I'm not old."
"No, I'm still young but you are old." Flora gently shoved Warren away with a mock-disgusted expression.
Warren didn't want to let go of her. He held on to her shoulder tightly, unwilling to budge, his expression saying that she could do nothing to him.
I didn't know how to respond. Flora and Warren had no problem displaying their love for each other in public.
I pulled Arron, who was thoroughly perplexed, closer to me and softly explained, "Arron, you can call them whatever you like. It doesn't matter."
Arron nodded and said, "Nice to meet you, Flora, and Warren the old man."
