Chapter 24: Chapter 22

When Zach noticed he was leaning on Sonia's shoulder, he didn't sit upright. He remained still and just called her name in that position.

"Hm?" Sonia asked as she looked at him.

His eyelashes were thick and long. Their pink color complemented his light skin and hair. "Zach, are you aware of what we discussed moments ago?" she said while brushing his bangs aside. When she did, he caught her hand, so she shifted her body slightly to face him.

"Mm, I know everything you tackled," Zach said while taking in her sweet scent mixed with the fragrant flowers and grasses behind them.

"Then I'll proceed with calling you Zach, and your shadow, Edmund, okay?"

"Do what you want," he said softly before freeing her hand and moving closer so he could properly rest his head on her shoulder.
