652 Pool House

Rudy teleported to the pool house with Alice, but it was empty, except only Vriti, using her phone on the bed.

She was startled when Rudy and Alice appeared out of nowhere, but she managed to not show any reaction.

"Where is everyone?" Rudy asked Vriti.

"Pool."

"They have taken a liking to the pool. I have to make sure our new place has a big pool," he muttered.

"Why are you here then? You don't like pools?"

"I was sleeping at night and woke up a while ago. I can't go there because the sun is up. And the others have been there since night. They will return at… mid…day? Is that a word?"

"Yes, you can call it midday. But it's better if you call it noon."

"Understood."

Rudy nudged Alice and asked, "What will you do now?"

"Well, I will go there, I guess? What will you do?"

"I will drop you there."

"Umm…" Vriti clenched the bedsheet and meekly uttered, "If you are going there, please take me with you. I am bored."
