Yet I felt a twist in my chest too. I didn't want Kash to go inside either. But unlike Lara, I had no right to stop him. He wasn't my man, he was hers.
So I got up awkwardly, staring into the cave and wondering if I should be the one to go instead.
Luca went in there for my children. I should be the one to follow him.
"Lara, are you fucking kidding me? Who do you think I am?" I heard Kash yell in frustration from behind me as I reached the cave entrance.
Taking a deep breath, I prepared to step inside and survive for as long as I could.
"I don't care who you think you are. All I care about is that your life will be in danger if there's some kind of vine monster in there," Lara hissed.
As I lifted my foot to step into the cave, a hand grabbed my arm tightly. I turned and saw Kash holding onto me, his grip firm enough to let me know he wouldn't let me go in there.
"And what do you think you're doing?" he demanded, glaring harshly.
"I have to go, Kash. Luca's in there."
