　　"Hey buddy." Alexa called out to Jace as soon as she opened the door to his room and saw his eyes open.

　　Jace fixed his eyes on the place the voice that called him was coming from, sighed and looked away.

　　Alexa's heart fell at what he did.

　　He was obviously still angry at her and she couldn't blame him for that.

　　She caused it.

　　Alexa walked towards him and sat on his bed.

　　It was then she noticed another presence in the room.

　　She looked up and her gaze locked with that of a little girl.

　　Alexa quickly sized her up.

　　Judging from her small, round oval face, tiny pointed nose, small cherry lips and how long her legs were on the bed, Alexa concluded she'd not be more than 9-10 years old.

　　There was something else she noticed about the little girl.

　　She was thin.

　　Like, not the normal thin stature.

　　She looked slightly underweight.
