The lamp on the corridor was on and off again and again.

Joseph rushed to come home, but he kept entering the wrong passcode. The door was warning them the password was wrong.

Eventually, they got in the door. It was dark inside.

The house was empty. Noah and Stella lived in the Beckhams' Mansion recently and GTE lived in school because of the final exams and the maneuver.

The moon's pale light cast soft shadows on the wall.

Hayden didn’t say which Léon she liked in the end. But Joseph did not bother asking her knowing that she did not like that puppet boy, in case she kept laughing at him.

The house began to warm up. Hayden felt tired after the sex, lying on the couch next to Joseph.

“Is it Anna that tells you about the puppet boys and wolf boys?”

Hayden nodded casually.

“The young men are called the puppet boys and wolf boys. How do you call an elder man?” Joseph asked.

Hayden thought for a second and stared at him, “Are you sure you want to know?”

He thought for a while and nodded, although he knew there couldn’t be a nice word.

Hayden went blank for a while and became less sleepy. She stared at Joseph, “Anna said, both the puppet boys and wolf boys refer to the young men. But the elder men who have bad temper and never compliment women are usually unkind, so there’s another word for them.”

Joseph disagreed with a frown, “A man who does not like to compliment is unkind?”

“Yeah, you never compliment me.”

Hayden looked at him awhile. She didn’t think he was the kind of man who was used to flatter, so she found an excuse for him, “Actually, a glib talker is not always popular.”
