"Hey, sure, sure, go on, be careful on the road..." Youran's mom agreed with a smile, casting a subtle glance at their intertwined hands.
Youran felt her mom's gaze and her face flushed instantly. She instinctively wanted to pull her hand back, but Gu Yu held on tight, giving her no room to withdraw.

Youran blushed, allowing Gu Yu to lead her by the hand as they walked, but her eyes kept falling involuntarily on their clasped hands.

Buses seemed to have stopped running since four in the afternoon, and even taxis were scarce. Central Park was still some distance from their home. Were they going to walk there??
