The next day was the end of their vacation. The trio returned to London. As Professor Layton's adopted daughter, Flora lived with him but Luke lived with his parents. Fortunately Luke's parents lived near Professor Layton. When they returned to London, Luke gripped Flora's hand for a moment, pressing a note into her palm, then they went their separate ways. Flora opened the note that evening in her room. The note said:
Leave your window open tonight.
~ Luke
Flora's room was on the first floor of the house and Professor Layton's room was on the second floor. She opened her window and fell asleep. Luke crept across the Professor's backyard. He found Flora's window and climbed into her room.
"Flora!" He whispered and shook her shoulder gently.
"Luke!" she threw her arms around him and he stumbled against the wall. He buried his face in her hair. After holding her for a while, he gently pulled back and kissed her on the nose.
"I can't stay." He whispered. "My parents will notice I'm gone."
"Stay as long as you can." She murmured, pulling him close once more.
After half an hour had passed, Luke got up.
"I have to go." He said, caressing Flora's cheek. "I'll see you tomorrow." He climbed out the window and ran to the edge of Professor Layton's backyard. He turned, blew a kiss to Flora who was standing at the window, then sprinted back to his house.
