The next day, Diego takes a look at Leah's sink while Beth and Aurora are present along with Axel.

"I can't thank you guys enough for helping my friend fix her sink." said Beth, as she thanks Aurora and Diego. "Oh, and you too Axel."

"No problem." said Diego, who was underneath the kitchen sink taking a look at the sink's faucet.

"Anytime." said Aurora, as she smiles. "So, Beth, you and Leah are close?"

"Hm? Oh yeah, her and I are like sisters or in fact cousins." said Beth, as she jokes. "She's like a little sister to me, even though she's a little inches taller than me. We treat each other like sisters and respect each other."

"Um, Honey. Can you girls check if there's water coming out of the sink? Please." said Diego, as he asked Aurora who was too busy talking with Beth. "Honey?"

Axel walks to where Diego was.

"Well, that's nice that you and Leah are really close." said Aurora

"Yeah." said Beth, agreeing with her.

"Honey, can you check if there's water coming out of the sink?! Please!" said Diego, a little bit loudly this time making Aurora and Beth finally hear him.

"Huh? Oh yes dear, I'm coming!" said Aurora, as she and Beth checked the kitchen sink. 

Meanwhile, in the treatment building, the staff there take both Maire's and Jordan's boot cast off, after giving them news that their treatment was a complete success and that they are fully healed from their recovery.

"Really? That's grand!" said Jordan, with excitement while hugging Maire tightly unknowingly, when she couldn't believe what she was hearing.

Maire froze as Jordan continued to hug her.

"Uh..." said Jordan, after realizing that she was hugging Maire.

Jordan pulls away from Maire awkwardly before admitting that the moment got to her.

"It's okay, I understand." said Maire, as she walks away to the room's exit that leads to the waiting room.

Jordan follows Maire to the waiting room, where they find Leah and Gael there.

"Guys, your boot cast it's finally off!" said Gael, as he smiles at them dumbfounded.

"Yep. Oof!" said Maire, as Gael hugs her.

With Leah doing the same thing to Jordan.

Once breaking their hug, Leah hugs Maire while Gael high fives Jordan.

"This is great!" said Leah, as she stops hugging Maire. "From the looks of it, you girls can play soccer in no time! Well, once you're finally cleared from the trainers."

After seeing that the doctor and therapist were waiting for them both, Maire and Jordan thanked them for helping them with their recovery before parting ways along with Leah and Gael.

Once reaching their apartment, Gael fixes Leah's phone as promised, while Diego manages to fix Leah's sink drain issues.

"It's done Leah, you're sink is all fixed up." said Diego

"Thanks you guys, a lot." said Leah, as she thanked them while smiling.

"Nah, it was nothing." said Aurora

"So Leah, now since your sink is all fixed, we don't have to use those extra buckets of water." said Beth

"Oh yeah, I literally forgot about those." said Leah, as she admits. "Anyways, you can do that later Beth."

"For sure." said Beth, holding up a thumbs up.

"Anyways due to Maire's and Jordan's recovery, I suggest that we celebrate in our backyard." said Aurora, as she announces.

Moments later...

During the gathering, Gael was setting up the cookout in the backyard while Leah watched him try to light up the grill with a match.

Leah giggles.

"I don't think that you are doing it right." said Leah, while seeing that Gael was struggling a bit.

"Non-sense, I'm practically a pro at it." said Gael, proudly, continuing to lit up the match.

Leah snorted, while walking over to Gael. 

"Then way isn't the fire from the grill on." said Leah, as she smirks.

"Well... because..." said Gael, as he hesitates while blushing. "Um..."

Leah laughs.

"I'm just kidding!" said Leah, as she hugs Gael.

"To be honest, I already got used to you wetting me around this time." said Gael, as he hugs Leah. "But, seeing you here, made me realize that I have nothing else to lose."

"Yeah, well I'm glad that things finally worked out for the two of us." said Leah smiling at Gael, in which he does the same to her. 

Just then, Beth accidentally wets both Leah and Gael with a bucket, while being in Leah's backyard. 

"Gah!" cried both Gael and Leah

Leah and Gael both looked at each other confused, and while realizing that neither one of them was the one that did it, they decided to peek over and see who it was. While peeking over Leah's backyard, they find Beth also peeking from the top of the fence.

"Oops..." said Beth, who was embarrassed. "Um... I-I-I just thought it might have been a good time to - I didn't know that the two of you were standing over there... Sorry..."

"We're ordering take out." said Gael and Leah in sync, as Beth just watches them.

Both Leah and Gael receive warm and dry towels before showering in their own separate apartment.
