Melody was a little taken aback that Lucas would give her such a serious answer after that light-hearted moment earlier. That was exactly what she had been waiting for.
When they arrived at the door of the house, Lucas turned to look at Melody. "I know it's very uncomfortable to be treated as a suspect, and I know that you feel that this isn't fair. But believe me, the perpetrator will reveal himself soon. Just wait patiently." Melody was convinced by his gentle yet firm assertion. "I believe you." "Good. Now wipe your tears.

She hoped that their peaceful and stable life could continue for the rest of their lives.

'Who am I to Lucas?' she wondered. 'Is it that difficult for him to tellwhere he's going even if we're just playing pretend?'
