The woman shot him a sceptical look. "Really?" she said, "then why did it take you half a dozen of my cry to notice me?"

Sumei snorted. "You don't lack girls to think about this poor woman."

"Hmm," Gale hummed. "I'm really curious as to whom you're addressing."

"Fine, I'll enlighten you then," Sumei rasped. "First that cute petite girl, she probably had nothing on her mind other than you all the time. Then there was that creepy girl."

"Twilight?" Gale arched an eyebrow.

"Whatever," Sumei clicked her tongue. "For the records, I hadn't left you in that abandoned farmhouse that other day. I merely discovered a cloaked figure carrying you there."
