A few days passed, and Joren's ride had finally reached their destination.
"Kidrith, hide…"
He muttered as he looked at the cruise about to depart from its port. Kidrith didn't know where else to hide except Joren's back. She went to his back with an excited and nervous smile.
In these past few days, being only the two of them in that ferry boat, their emotional distance between each other continued to lessen.
Back in the palace, Kidrith may have some acquiantances but never friends. All of them there were workmates, nothing more. At least, that is the case for her. This was the first time she opened herself up to another since birth.
It was unimaginably fun. Once the awkward atmosphere between them dissipated, Kidrith became more and more comfortable being with Joren.
