Finn was in between laughter and tears.
Perhaps because Baby Zetty would often confess her thoughts to Finn, so in the face of this grand confession, Finn dealt with by rejecting her all the same.
As always, he looked at Baby Zetty helplessly and patted her head before saying, "Zetty, how many times do I have to repeat myself before you understand?
You’re my most precious little sister, and I'll take good care of you. But it doesn't mean anything else.”
Baby Zetty pushed his hand away. "I’m not a kid anymore. I'm confessing my love to you right now. Don't reject me, please?"
Finn was forced into a corner. "Do you really want my answer? Fine, I'll give it to you straight. You and I will not end up together in this lifetime."
Big teardrops started rolling out of Baby Zetty’s eyes. She covered her face and ran away.
"Zetty." Finn wanted to chase after her. However, he was afraid that Zetty would misunderstand his intentions as love, so he stopped himself.
Tempest, Storm, and Grayson stood up instead.
However, as they chased after her, Baby Zetty had run
inside the bathroom while crying.
The three came back in frustration and asked the girls for help. "Zetty went into the bathroom. Can any one o f you help us out by going in and taking care of her?"
The woman who had chatted with Finn earlier took the initiative to offer, "I'll go."
When she arrived at the bathroom, she saw Baby Zetty squatting in the corner, crying in a heartbroken manner. She walked up to her, took a tissue, and handed it to her.
Baby Zetty took the tissue and thanked her. "Thank you, Miss."
