Chapter 36 - The Walk

"That's awesome!! Now that we're 'friends', Kea! I have an amazing proposal!" She gleamed.

… This… Might be pushing it a bit. But I definitely need to put in the effort!

"Even though it may be dark, even though it may be dreary, even though it may be wet! How about we go on a walk!"

A walk? Really took that much introduction? Well, either way, I can't say no at this point.

"Sure. Where?"

"No clue!" She countered in a heartbeat.

Ah, of course. This is going to be a long walk, isn't it…

"No time like the present!" She said as she grabbed her keys, coat, and shoes.

I guess I'm going too.

I grabbed my stuff and followed close behind.

As we left the apartment building, the temperature drastically dropped, oh wow… This is Fall weather for you…

I checked my watch, revealing that it had already passed 11. There were very few people on the streets at this time, so it was very quiet.

"Kea! Why are you walking behind me? Come on! If you're on a walk with somebody, you have to walk side by side!"

Oh… I already knew that; it was just more comfortable being at the back, though.

I walked up beside her, leaving a small gap between us as we walked.

"There ya go! That's perfect!"

This… feels too close… Stuff like this is why I'm actively feeling more conscious of her. I can't help but wonder why, why she does this stuff… it has to be hard somewhere.

Nil, on the other hand, was in her own chain of thought.

"This is fun, I realise why you love taking walks, it's nice, and…" The sentence couldn't finish itself.

Kind of comforting.
