Elijah's smile faded as her wings became folded against her back. She was leaving? Why in such a hurry? Did I spook her? He fretted over himself, wondering if it was something he said. "Wait! Wait, will I ever...." People rushed into the alley, blocking him from following. Most of them were from the crowd previously, bombarding him with questions to see if he was okay. He looked past them, watching Ariella disappear. Someone shook him by the shoulders to get his attention. It was Maurice.
"Are you okay?" The older man asked, snapping him back to reality.
"I'm...fine." He said, though he was rather disappointed that he'd lost her, hoping that he'd see her again.
