Chapter 70: Vol. 3: Noah to Haru - Chapter 70

Haru

I felt my face flushing hot. Why did he make it sound like he was doubting me and that he was suspicious of me?

“I’m nineteen, turning twenty soon, so yeah, I’m old enough to drive. And I didn’t drive here. I was out for a walk, and Aki and I found Toby.”

“Ah, so you live around here?” he asked.

“The next neighborhood over,” I said. “This part is way too fancy for us.”

“The next one over?” Sean tilted his head to one side as if he was in thought while his fingers were gently stroking Toby’s soft fur.

I wondered when he was going to give me the dog so we could head out. I wanted to find Toby’s home, after all.

“You’re new around the neighborhood, right?”

“We just moved in a week ago,” I said. “By the way, I was wondering if that collar of Toby’s has his home address. I want to return him to his owner.”

Sean chuckled. “Yes, it does, but I’m not telling you.”
