Adrian had got his name changed to Ian. "We...I..." "It's ok I know you guys are busy. Look after her in my stead," said Ian. "Don't get in trouble and don't get caught," said Leah. "Don't go after rumors. That's just a trick to find people who know about her or know her," said Rick. "Let us know if you ever get in trouble or have any problems. We may not be able to come, but will send help," said Jason. "We won't keep you in the loop since she doesn't want you to know anything about her," said ℥enji. "I know," said Ian. "Take care," said Janet before leaving with the others.
"Don't worry. I'll always wait for you to come back, so please come back to me," mumble Ian as he stood in the empty house that was now his.
Ian kept his word and continued his life as usual, though he always looked around for any signs of ⨊. "Mom keeps asking us about when you're going to return home. You can't live with those people forever," said Nina meeting up with Ian. "They left," said Ian. "What? When?" asked Nina. "They have been gone for more than a month already," said Ian. "Adri..." "Ian, my name is Ian," said Ian getting angry. "When are you coming home?" asked Vincent diverting the topic. "I am home," said Ian. "You're going to continue living there?" asked Vincent. "I know you're earning now, but it's not wise to rent such..." "It's my house," said Ian interrupting Nina. "And I'll always live there," he added. "What? That house is yours? We finally have a place to hang out. We can..." "No one is allowed in that house, in my house," said Ian interrupting Steve. "How did it become yours?" asked Vincent. "℥enji gave it to me," said Ian. Leaving the others stunned in place. A few months went by and Ian graduated from the academy.
