"I happen to be feeling really down lately. I need something to put my mind at ease. Would you like to go ice skating?" Levi asked.
Emma stared at Levi for a while. Not that she felt that his request was weird. But, she could see a great pressure on Levi's face. It looked like he was exhausted.
"Sure. Where's the place?" Emma asked excitedly. She didn't want to talk about the problem Levi was having right now. From the time they had spent together, she had learned that Levi would be more comfortable pouring out his mind when he was the one to talk about his problems first without having to be asked.
"Have you eaten?" Levi asked as he stood up.
"Breakfast," Emma answered.
Then Levi glanced at his watch. "How about having lunch before going playing?" he asked, holding out his hand in front of Emma's face.
"Sure," Emma replied, putting her hand in his warm grip. Then Levi pulled her up from the swing.
