Kit:
Kit blinked rapidly…his mind racing as he tried to process what he had just witnessed.
So many emotions rushed through him that he could hardly even keep track of what he was feeling…that was until he felt someone tug at his shirt from behind.
Startled, he looked back to find Nong Kohsoom, P’Kim and P’Kla’s youngest sister, standing behind him with a worried look on her face.
Before he could say anything, Som had taken a hold of Kit’s hand and was dragging him back inside the mansion once again and this time, Kit followed behind her reluctantly, not knowing what else to do.
Som took them up the spiral staircase to the first floor where all their rooms were located, all the while they kept looking back to make sure that no one, especially P’Kla or P’Kanya, wasn’t following them.
Finally, the two of them came to a stop right outside Som’s bedroom and she let go of his hand, panting with her hands on her knees as her tiny form tried to catch up with the lack of oxygen.
