Piper experienced an overwhelming wave of emotions, feeling a mix of joy and impulsiveness as she jumped into the water without thinking about safety precautions like a rope or life vest. Driven by her relief, she swam over to Leo and affectionately kissed him, a gesture that caught him off guard. The carefree moment quickly shifted when her excitement turned to anger as she demanded to know where Leo had been and how he had survived.

Leo's demeanor remained light-hearted as he responded to her concerns, suggesting it was a long story while offering her a brownie from a nearby picnic basket that had surfaced. This blend of tension and humor revealed the strange yet comforting dynamic between them, highlighting both their worries and the small joys of their adventurous lives.
