When she saw Kai spaced out at the entrance, Skylar patted him on the shoulder. She asked with a smile, “Thinking of some pretty girls?”
Kai regained his senses. “No, there’s no pretty girl. No one is more beautiful than you.”
Kai wasn’t flattering Skylar on purpose as she was indeed a beauty. He was actually thinking about the reason she and Tobias were together. It must be her looks.
Finally, Skylar almost spent all her money while Pollyanna’s hands were filled with shopping bags. Before she left, Pollyanna insisted to have her number which Skylar provided.
Meanwhile, Kai felt that the little girl was too smart for her own good and that it wasn’t such a good idea for Skylar to be so close to her.
The cold moonlight finally shone on the quiet village in the hills.
Kai picked up some tall grass from the roadside and gave them to Skylar. “These are for you, to celebrate the successful completion of filming.”
Skylar bent down and plucked a few more. Using her nimble fingers, she weaved them into a small rabbit.
“And this is for you.”
Kai broke into a smile. “You’re more generous than I am. Is he picking you up tomorrow? I doubt he is.”
Skylar shook her head. “He’s been busy recently. I’ll be heading home by myself.”
“Are you staying together?” Despite his reluctance, Kai still asked about it.
Skylar didn’t answer. She didn’t want Kai to know too much and have it affect Tobias.
When Skylar didn’t answer, Kai took it as an implicit yes.
