"No, no!" Galen waved his tiny hands, reluctant.He had seldom been to Margaret's house.
Although he only had vague memories of those trips, he knew the place was so far away that he had to
sleep for hours before getting there.
Furthermore, it was boring there, and Margaret was not good at entertaining children.
As a result, Galen felt uneasy with her.
Children’s intuition was sharp, so it would be challenging to be close to someone if they did not like that

Galen’s gesture warmed Alexander, and the latter smiled before patting Galen's head.
"You're the best, too!"
As he turned and walked out of the room, he bumped into Austin, who was surprised to see him

"You're going out?"
"Yes." Alexander nodded.

unsure how the pathogens or symbiotes work, I shouldn't just stay here and do nothing.
