"Did you say your name is Spire Valrepite? The young lady from the Xertle City?" Sylvia asked.

Spire nods her head. She looks much cleaner now. She’s not wearing her dress at the moment, but she is wearing clean clothes provided for her.

Evan sighs at what he is seeing. He remembered how his heart had almost stopped earlier when he thought those men looking for Spire came back.

Apparently, it was just his mom. Sometimes, she does forget to knock on his door. She thought that Evan was either out or asleep, so she was getting in to grab the laundry in his room.

It was almost amazing how neither Evan nor Spire screamed or passed out in terror when the door opened.

Now, they are inside the living room, with Sylvia helping Spire to dry her hair after she had helped bathed her.

Evan’s dad, Erwin, passed by earlier to grab something he had forgotten. He wasn’t expecting Spire to pop up, but told them that he would call some people capable of taking Spire back to the city safely once he’s done with another part-time work.

"At least you’re safe here for the meantime." Evan says, taking one of the chair and sitting in front of her. "You’re very lucky that you managed to find a place to hide in."

Spire had a small pout as she looks at the side, looking almost embarrassed. "I wasn’t... hiding. I got into this house, stumbled in your room and accidentally got myself in your box thing. It’s very hard to navigate your room, okay?"

Evan blinked his eyes in confusion. "So, you just happened to passed by the house, tripped and trapped yourself in my foot-box." He says, a slight tilt of his head.

Spire tilts her head at the same side Evan was doing, mirroring him before turning around a little on the chair to look at Sylvia, ignoring him completely. "Thank you for letting me stay here until my father’s guards find me. I’m sorry for the trouble."
