Sorry, Leon (Brawl Stars)

Part 9

The entire walk home, Leon kicked and screamed, begging Nita to let him go back. Nita could barely stand it. She chided herself for allowing all of it to happen under her nose. She never would have expected Jessie to pull something like this. She knew that Jessie was being controlling, but this was on a whole new level. No wonder Leon would refuse to leave her side. When they finally got home, Nita grabbed the antidote she had gotten from Byron and forced Leon to drink it. She had rushed to the party and forgotten to bring it– how she regretted it now.
