That was f*cking close! Lua swore, breathing heavily. Not only had he been noticed while scaling the wall, but he had also fumbled the landing due to his panic causing him to make a lot of noise. As if all that wasn't enough, just two seconds after landing, a speeding bullet had nearly hit him.
The reports said nobody on the wall took their jobs seriously, so how come I nearly died!?
'Your mistake was speaking to me out loud.' Sol chimed in, expressing her opinion. Lua sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose, as if exasperated by the turn of events.
At least we made it… Having learnt his lesson, Lua was now communicating with Sol by thinking instead of talking. This was something he should have been doing since the beginning, but he had neglected it due to the single reason that it felt weird to do so. To him, conversing happened when two people opened their mouths to talk.
