As she was Lost in her thoughts, she noticed the house's door open, and a young man stepped out.

Ariana squinted slightly at the vaguely familiar figure in the distance. The figure was... Theodore!

"Theodore!" Without a second thought, Ariana called out to him.

As the figure started to fade, Ariana dashed out of the door, hurrying down the stairs towards the other side.
