Kai took Kalea's hand carefully. Kalea did not know where he would take her at this time of night. They passed through tall grasses and even rocks. Kalea was confused, what did Kai want to show her when as long as they walked there was nothing interesting and creepy enough. There was only the light from the flashlight Kai carried.
"Kai, is the place still far?" Kalea asked impatiently.
"It'll be a while, are you tired already?"
"A little." Kalea frowned in confusion when Kai stopped walking and turned back.
"Do you want me to carry you?"
"Eh? No need! I can still walk," Kalea refused as delicately as possible, she did not want to inconvenience the man and what if Kai noticed her large belly compared to Kalea's overall body that was not fat.
Kai did not want to insist, he returned to walking while still holding Kalea's hand. "Be patient for a while longer, okay?" Kai said soothingly, he gently stroked the back of Kalea's hand with his thumb.
