"In that case, why don't you try writing a story yourself?"
That question repeated a couple of times in my head before I was able to respond to Kai.
"... Writing, huh? I guess I never thought of it that way," I told him, still mulling over things in my head. "Why 'writing' though? They're not really the same thing."
"You said you enjoyed reading because it's like going on an adventure yourself—going into a new world and becoming another person."
Oh my, did I say it that way? It sounded so weird now that I'm hearing it.
"Yeaaah…," I cringed. I hope he didn't get creeped out from what I said. Was I weird?
