Roxanne grew impatient waiting with Archie and Estella, but Lucian's words kept her anxiously vigilant. Then, her phone vibrated. She answered immediately.

"We found Benny," Lucian's deep voice announced. "He's watching the band. Someone's keeping an eye on him. Come."

Relief washed over Roxanne. "Thank you. I'll be there right away."

Lucian grunted, hung up, and hurried toward Benny.

Archie, noticing his mother's expression, asked, "Have they found Benny?"

Roxanne nodded, offering a reassuring smile. Archie, however, was more agitated. "Let's go! He's alone, terrified!" He tugged at her hand.

Roxanne, eager to see Benny, reminded her sons, "Hold my hands tightly. Don't wander off like Benny did."

They agreed, and she led them through the dense crowd toward the band's performance. Lucian waited at the edge, striding toward them. He took Estella's hand—this time, she didn't resist.

"Where's Benny?" Archie asked, anxious.

Lucian gestured toward the band. Benny was playing the drums! He looked cool and focused, completely in the groove. The crowd buzzed.

"Where did he come from? Is he the missing child? He's amazing for his age!"

"He's so cute and cool! His parents are lucky!"

Roxanne's tension eased as she watched Benny, a hint of pride welling up. She knew Archie and Benny were exceptionally bright, and she'd always encouraged their interests. Benny had started drum lessons at three, showing remarkable talent within months. This was the first time she'd seen him perform with a band, truly showcasing his ability.

Onstage, the band members stared, astonished. They'd noticed Benny watching, intently eyeing the drums. Thinking he was just curious, they'd invited him up, expecting a clumsy attempt. Instead, Benny kept pace, a few minor stumbles aside, exceeding their expectations. With his final beat, the fireworks began.
