“It looks like were about to go,” I told Rika, who seemed still be be debating in her head about staying or not. I guess I couldn't blame her, but these wolves... Something more seemed to be going on than just the fight.....
I held out my hand to Rika and she smiled up at me as she took my hand and kept it there, which made me smile. Sky decided we were to go to the village and see where the wolves would go with that. I went along with it, and followed the group with Rika still beside me, her hand still in mind.
I gave her hand a small squeeze to try and reassure her about the whole ordeal, but she just gave me a small smile back and then looked at my bandages and how much I was leaning on my katana. I wasn't wincing, but my wound was still hurting.
I figured it was to distract herself from the matter at hand, but she did actually seem a little concern.
"Is that hurting?" Rika asked, her eyes scanning over my dressed wound.
"A little, but not that much. And don't worry, okay, Rika? Everything is going okay," I tried to reassure again, but she just did a slight smile.
"Trust me," I told her as I picked up her hand and kissed it, which made me blush and her blush as I put our hands back down our side.
I smiled and she smiled as we slowly got into the village, which was bustling as usual.
