Chase and Ryder went inside, but Chase felt little bit uncomfortable, because he just left. Literally 5 mins ago. Both of them wiped out their tears and calmed down.

"Do you want coffee Ryder? It's very early in the morning." Helga asked.

"No, thanks I don't drink coffee, and we usually wake up around this hour. Maybe I'll take tea instead, if you have it please. I've got pretty cold while driving here. Ryder said.

"Yeah we have tea I'll make you one, and what about you Chase? Do you want something?"

"Maybe water please." Chase said.

"Alright take a sit and I'll be right back." Helga said while leaving to the kitchen.

"I-I will help her" Chase nervously said.
It worried Ryder, but he didn't want to push him. Right now he was thinking what Helga wanted to talk about with him.

"Oh okay." Ryder agreed.

In the kitchen.

"Oh? Chase why are you here?" Helga asked.

"I want to ask you for something very important" Chase said with serious tone

"Oh what is it Chase?" Helga got interested.

"Don't tell Ryder that I slept outside between buildings. Please, I beg you! He can't know this." Chase begged her.

"Woah, woah, woah wait, slow down!" Helga said loud enough so Ryder could hear it from another room. He stood up and went towards kitchen curious what's happening.

"But why you don't want me to tell him about that? It's not like he will be mad, yeah?" Helga asked him.

Ryder could hear that clearly, he got worried again and decided to hide behind the doors to hear what they talk about.

"I... Don't... Want him to worry about me more. He already worried entire night I know that, he said Marshall and Skye were searching for me at night, but he didn't mention himself. I know he was looking too. At least... I believe that he did."

Last sentence of what Chase said touched Ryder. "Of course I was looking for him, why would he doubt that... I..." He thought to himself but got interrupted by Helga.

"Yeah you're right, but remember when I said that I want to talk with him? That's exactly what I wanted to say and explain with him things." She said.

"Talk about what? Something happened? Why would I be worried about something else than missing Chase?" Ryder thought, getting more and more worried.

"He can't know that..." Chase said with upset tone. "Please I'll do anything..." He tried again.

"Ahhh please Chase... What do I tell him then if he asks what I wanted to talk about?" Helga asked.

"I don't know anything but this. Tell him that I slept here entire night or something..." Chase tried to give any ideas.

Helga was quiet for a moment as she was solving the hardest math question.

"No Chase I can't do this. It's gonna be okay trust me. He must know, I'll tell him to not tell other pups about it. Is it okay enough?
Only him. Noone else." Helga said with serious tone.

"B-but..." Chase started to complain when Helga gave him serious mother look. "Ughhh fine... But.. don't make it so dramatic, I was okay sleeping out there, it was just... little bit... cold." Chase argued.

"He slept where?!" Ryder shouted in thoughts.

"Alright Chase, Ryder is probably worrying what is taking so long, let's go back to him" Helga said, and Chase nodded nervously.

Ryder quickly went back where he was sitting before they see him.

"Here, your tea Ryder."

"Thanks"

Silence filled the room, and everyone felt little bit awkward. Then Ryder broke the silence.

"So, Helga. What did you want to talk about?"

Chase looked at Helga with scared look, and she sighed.

"So..."
