Ai stood up and placed her palm on Jin's shoulder. "Stay here with Shui and make sure you drop her home."
"Wait, what about you?"
"I have already called Jun to pick me up," she smiled. "He is almost here."
She whispered near his ear. "She needs you the most now."
Jin said nothing and simply nodded. Ai excused herself and left, filling an awkward silence behind. He walked up to her and gently took his seat beside her. Her slightly reddened eyes still expressed the horror she felt.
Jin saw her quivering hands clasped together. He pressed his lips, gauging the right and wrong choices. But he figured there was nothing right or wrong in this situation.
He gently placed his hand over her trembling hands and firmly pressed them. "It's all okay now."
His gesture and words exhibited the assurance she wanted to feel. He hesitated for a moment and stretched his hand to wipe away the moistness from her eyes.
