He gently sat her on the back porch, took some tools and a bucket and headed towards the field. She would not let him treat her like a disable person and planned to run after him when he was farther away. That way, he can't stop her from moving around.
Atlas set out towards the field but his old habit remained. He turned around to see if she was at the same spot and if she looked okay. After catching a glimpse, he proceeded forward.
She thought he wanted to see if she was okay and didn't think much of it, but halfway to the field, he stopped and turned around to study the figure sitting on his porch.
