After the Synergy was successfully, Sarah fainted.
When she regained consciousness, she felt a familiar warmth from a pair of familiar arms hugging her waist.
"Huh!" Sarah gasped and opened her eyes with worry.
Varian's smiling face appeared in her vision.
Sarah's eyes turned teary and she felt that something stuck in her throat. Even breathing became hard. But she still managed to utter. "I-Is it you?"
Varian smirked. "The one and only, Yours Truly."
Sarah's world brightened. Her breath returned to normal, her throat didn't feel stuffy and the tears in her eyes receeded.
Varian scraped the tip of her nose playfully and said. "Want to say something to me?"
Sarah nodded and suddenly bit Varian's arm that was wrapped around her waist.
"Ouch! Ouch! Yo!" Varian called out, out of surprise than pain. "Take it easy, lady."
