Kenna carried a large suitcase downstairs and, upon seeing Nathen who had been waiting downstairs for a while, immediately rushed towards him.
“Nathen, I thought you were still mad at me. I’m sorry, I was wrong that day and said the wrong things. Thank you for forgiving me.”
The strong scent from her hair filled Nathen’s nostrils, causing his stomach to churn uncontrollably.
But he said nothing, suppressing the discomfort that came from his nerves.
With one hand holding the luggage and the other arm around her waist, wo slowly walled towards the car.
Kenna loolood at the hand he placed around her waist, and a sense of joy welled up in her heart. A blush also spread across her face.
This was the first time Nathen had taken the initiative to have intimate contact with her since they had known each other for five months.
She thought he had already moved on from the sorrow, she thought he had finally figured it out and decided to be with her, her tone was full of joy and
excitement…
“Have you not been eating properly recently? You have become so thin that it worries me.”
Nathen nodded and opened the trunk.
Kenna had a few more concerns, and out of the comer of her eye, she caught sight of the empty trunk, a hint of surprise flickering in her eyes.
“Weren’t we supposed to go on a trip? Nathen, why didn’t you bring anything?”
Nathen stared at her for a while before finally uttering a few words.
“Didn’t you exist?
Kenna understood this sentence as meaning that he entrusted himself completely to her for this trip, and his smile on his face became even brighter.
She helped to carry the luggage inside together, and then she pulled him and walked towards the front of the car.
“Let’s make it clear first, for this trip, you have to listen to me. I want you to eat well, so you have to eat well. I want you to take pictures for me.
Once Kenna’s box of words was opened, it could never be closed again.
Nathen listened all the way and rarely answered her.
Only when she felt ignored and looked over, did he utter a word or two
Slowly, Kenna also noticed that his mood was off today and hesitantly asked a question,
“Nathen, were you unhappy? Why weren’t you speaking?”
Nathen glanced at the navigation, his tone was
“I enjoyed listening to you speak”
very calm.
In that case, Nathen had also said it many times before.
Kenna finally let go of her worries and continued chattering non–stop.
She had talked too much and she was tired. So she took a bottle of water and unscrewed it, drinking while looking at the scenery outside the window.
