The tremor was so hard, pushing them on the ground, but they kept hugging each other, for that was the only way they could. "Ji Sung! Ji Sung!" and only that name came from her lips. With hoarse voices as she tightened her embrace.
Ji Sung closed his eyes in fear but hugged her as his hand covered Rinoa's head and tried to protect her with everything he got. In the uncertainty, people usually relied on each other, embracing each other like never before.
Falling debris stopped as the quake subsided. Dust floated, concealing towers and infrastructure goblins made early. Their visibility slowly returned to normal, but the thick air and hard smell charged their nostrils.
"I am scared, Ji Sung." Rinoa mugged into his chest as her heart beat fast. The weathered face, the warmth of her, and the tremors on voice and her body. She was scared to the core.
