On her way back, Lila played around with the little boy. She was getting used to his human version. Each time she looked at him, he appeared cuter.
Little Ivan ran around her trying to play catch with her. She was having trouble controlling her speed.
Despite the difficulty, she managed to do it. At some point, their giggles filled the air, melting the coldness with their warmth.
Suddenly, she stopped. This made the little boy stumble into her form. Before he could ask anything, she lifted him up.
" Baby, can you shift for big sister? I want you to hide in my coat. We have some bad people here."
The little boy looked confused first. Upon the mention of bad people, he nodded. He shifted very first and crawled inside her now open jacket.
He hid his entire body clinging to her slender frame. The only part of him that could be seen was the top of his head.
