Chapter 20: Promise
It was 17:00 when Juna walked back into the Guild with Fin trailing behind, still getting used to his new suit. She headed straight for the Guildmaster's office, knocked once, and went in. Mara was already there, still buried in papers.
"Here's his account number," she said, sliding a paper across the desk. "For the money."
The Guildmaster nodded, writing it down. "It'll process soon."
Mara stepped in. "I need it too. I have pay him the money I promised."
Juna smirked. "Oh, right. The porter thing. Almost forgot he's yours."
Mara's eyes narrowed, but she stayed quiet, taking a copy of the number and jotting it down fast.
Fin who was at the back just watching, shifted, feeling out of place. "Uh, thank you."
"Don't thank me yet," Mara said, tone flat. "You still owe me work."
Juna winked. "You're welcome, sweetie."
The guildmaster looked it him for a few seconds. "I see you have improved your appearance."
"Yes, thanks to Juna, she is very kind."
