" Thank you. " Essy's whisper-like voice was heard breaking the silence in the canteen and Stacy immediately turned to her.
She approached the latter slowly and held her hand before wiping away her tears with her hands, " You don't have to thank me, Essy. I would have done that for anyone and remember, you aren't just anyone but our friend now, um? "
" Really? "
" Yes of course! " She turned to face Jemmy who had been standing there quietly, " Right Jemmy? "
" Yes. " Jemmy then walked towards them before saying, " Welcome on board, Essy! "
" Thanks, Jemmy! "
" Aw, you don't have to say thank you since we are all friends now. Right, Stacy? "
" Of course! "
" I am so glad! " She hesitated a little before asking, " Um.. can I hug you two? "
" Of course, you can! There's no need for the formality! " The duo Replied in unison as they embraced her.
