"Where is Bà?" inquired Raelle as she looked at Shui Xian.
"I was with you the whole time, how would I know?" he retorted while looking around the house. He called for a maid and asked her.
"Elder Master has gone out for a walk," answered the maid.
"There you have it. Now, you know where he is," said Shui Xian as he waved off the maid to leave. He dragged her along towards the sitting area. He sat down and pulled her on his legs.
"What are you doing?"
"Weren't we gonna wait for Bà?"
"Yes, we were."
"Then that's exactly what we are doing!"
While his lips played around the back of her neck while his fingers fiddled with her hair, Raelle was completely not paying any attention to him. She rummaged out her phone to scroll through the news of the day.
"Ah! My night blindness is acting up again!"
