"Hey!"

Immediately grabbing a hold of her shoulders, Zaxton held Kali up before she could fall unto the ground.

Zaxton's been deeply worried. This has been the eighth time this week and it's still a weekday.

Hearing Zaxton's alarmed voice, the others looked back to the two and sees that Kali has her body leaning unto him for support.

"Kali!" Avery rushed towards them. After knowing about the girl's condition, she'd often times find herself worrying over her.

Hence, she had suggested a trip with their friends as a guise to look for her. Fortunately, she found her and it's all thanks to Phoebe's help.

"What happened? Is she okay?" Phoebe asked as well, worried as she came near the three. Even the others who were usually cold to her especially Chand, couldn't help but be concerned as well when they saw how pale she had become.

Although most of them were left baffled and confused as to why Avery is acting way too worried.

Kali forced herself to stand up even through her weakened state. She knows that even if they somehow hated her, they'll still fret over her and she didn't want that.

Zaxton may have gotten her meaning and also helped her up without showing it to anyone.

"I'm fine. I just tripped. My bad," Kali said with an apologetic smile as she felt her legs quiver lightly while trying to hold unto the small strength that's keeping her up.

"I think it's better if you'll stay with me. That way, I can take care of you," Zaxton said to Kali. Although his words were only meant for Kali to hear, Avery still heard it since she was closer to the two. She looked at the boy opposite from her with wondering eyes.

"Zaxton has a point, Kali. How about staying in his place? Since we'll be staying there then I can also keep an eye on you if something were to happen," Avery reasoned out.

With furrowing eyebrows, Zaxton looked intently at Kali. The latter hesitantly nodded, feeling as if she couldn't really say no to the youngest and to her brother anymore so.
