"We didn't eat breakfast this morning. Aren't you hungry, Kera?" Mignon asked, her voice coming out muffled as a result of the facemask she was wearing, which covered her nose down to her mouth. Immediately they arrived at the city, Shikera had taken this out and instructed her to wear it. Shikera did the same, but Alan was spared.
"Why am I wearing it when Alan isn't?" Mignon had asked, not used to wearing stuffs that covered her face. She had been secretly grieving the fact that her pretty face was only visible to the boys and men at the island and now that she had a chance to visit the city and show off, Shikera was disabling her from doing so.
However, Shikera's sweet reply had made her discard all thoughts of exposing her face in the city.
"You, your face will attract all the boys in the city and I fear that when we are ready to return, the entire population of men will want to follow us back to the island. I won't be safe then."
