"Thank you." Lilah said. "For making me understand. And as for my promise..."
Kael waited patiently for her to speak but she looked hesitant.
Lilah battled in her mind if it was okay to say the words that she had in mind. If she wouldn't seem too daring or too bold. If she wouldn't seem rude and demanding when they were meeting for the first time today and he was her savior.
Ah, it was precisely because he was her savior that she sought to ask for this promise. She was scared of a lot of things and had gone through different types of hell in both lives that she lived.
And she felt even more uneasy without her long-time companion in her hand. Her cane.
It wasn't that the cane would change anything but it made her more confident in the steps she took and had always been her support.
But they left the cane in the car when Kael decided to support her instead.
