As Eleanor and Celeste engaged in their playful activities, the tranquility was suddenly disrupted by the arrival of Celeste's parents. They had come to retrieve their daughter, informing her that the time had come for them to return home. With a polite farewell, Celeste bid adieu to Eleanor, the temporary companionship coming to an end.

Upon Celeste's departure, Eleanor found herself overcome with a profound sense of relief. "Thank goodness, I no longer have to maintain this façade," she murmured to herself, the weight of her forced camaraderie with Celeste lifting from her shoulders.

The forced pleasantries and the need to feign affection had taken a toll on Eleanor, and she was grateful for the respite. In the solitude that followed Celeste's exit, Eleanor could finally drop the mask of amicability, allowing her true emotions and intentions to surface once more.

The temporary truce had served its purpose, and now Eleanor was free to return to the machinations of her carefully crafted plan for revenge. With Celeste's departure, the stage was set for Eleanor to pursue her clandestine objectives, unencumbered by the pretense of frienship.

Suddenly, something caught her eye. In the distance, she noticed a boy around her age wearing a dark coat, obscuring his face. Curious, Eleanor approached him cautiously.

As she got closer, the boy seemed to sense her presence. Without warning, he raised his hands and a shimmering portal appeared before him. Before Eleanor could react, the boy stepped through the portal and vanished.

Eleanor stood there, stunned. "Did that boy just use magic?" she wondered aloud. "Creating a portal at his age is highly unusual. I felt a strange aura coming from him as well."

Eleanor's mind raced with questions. Who was that boy? How was he able to perform such advanced magic at such a young age? And why did he disappear so suddenly?

Determined to uncover the truth, Eleanor decided to investigate further. She knew that if she could find out more about this mysterious boy, it might provide her with valuable information to aid in her revenge against Celeste.

With a newfound sense of purpose, Eleanor headed back inside, her thoughts consumed by the strange encounter she had just witnessed.
