Zackary sighed and pulled the crying girl away from the brick wall. He encircled his arms around her shoulders and pats her head. He doesn't know anything else on how to comfort someone other than giving hugs.
"Why are you hugging me?" Phoebe was taken aback by the sudden embrace. They shouldn't be hugging, she's an enemy to him and so is him to her.
"I don't know, I just did," he lied, pulling her away.
"Tsk, you're just a softie," Phoebe rolls her eyes at him.
"Shut up. Follow me," Zack says, yanking her arm tightly before leaving the dead-end alley.
"To where?" She asked, looking up at the frowning male. Zack didn't answer and went on dragging her until they reach his car.
"Get in," he nods his head towards inside the car after opening the door. Phoebe, without a thought, sits inside the passenger seat. Zack promptly went to the driver's seat, started the engine, and drove off to the main road.

Ruby sat on the couch beside Axel and watches the Coraline movie playing on the television. The male gazes at the girl to see her upset-looking face.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
Ruby took her eyes off the TV. "Zack didn't take me to the cafe he promised to," her expression worsened as she rants about Zack not fulfilling his promise. Ruby thinks that he just said that because he feels bad for the death of her kitten.
Axel softly laughs at her. "Aw, don't be mad. He just went on a mission. Maybe tomorrow he would take you out,"
Speaking of the mission...
"Axel, can you explain to me why there were men attempted to kidnap us yesterday? and you, Raven, and that Daniel guy appeared all of a sudden wearing suits like some agents or something— all of the weird happening these days! I swear to god if you don't tell me I'm gonna— "
"Whoa, calm down! Gosh, I know you want your questions to be answered but sad to say, I can't tell you," Axel says, interrupting the frustrated girl beside him.
"And why is that?!" She half yelled. Widening her eyes towards him.
"Because Kai said so," Ruby's face fell stoic at his answer.
Kai
Kai
Kai

She rolls her eyes, "and why does he not want you to tell me?" She asks, gripping the throw pillow she just snatched behind her back.
"Correction, us." He corrects. "I don't know why tho, go ask him why," he added, blinking towards the girl who is close to screaming.
"Look, he wouldn't answer any questions I ask no matter how hard I try, you could just tell me and it will be a secret between us!" She says, shifting towards the male.
"I can't—"
"Pleaseee~" the girl whines, shaking the male's arm.
Axel brushes her hands off and scoots away. The girl starts to be bothersome to him. He just wants to watch a movie in peace.
"I really can't. go bother the others, I'm watching!" He lightly yells, trying to shoo the girl away but said girl is persistent.
"No, pleaseeeee~" she whines loudly making the male snap.
"Okay, fine!" He yells, snatching the remote tv in the armrest to pause the movie.
"Yes," Ruby says before sitting properly beside the male like an obedient child.
