Chapter 257 - 257.Small talk (1/2)
This time he froze as he saw her looking seriously at his face. He touched his cheeks and tried to wish off whatever was there stuck. ''Is there something on my face?''
Kendra seriously nodded and started counting on her hand. ''Your eyes, nose, lips, ears, eyebrows... dimples. Complete face indeed.'' A small chuckle escaped her lips and he sighed in relief.
''You are naughty...'' That was an undeniable statement.
She just shrugged. ''I can afford it. Didn't you say you wanted to spoil me? That kind of speech makes me become quite a brat. Can't you even handle that?''
''I can.'' He said firey beliving completely in Kendra's judgment in what is right and what is wrong.
Kendra could only roll her eyes. ''I am a grown-up woman in a child's body. But even when I grow up I will not change my nature. Are you really willing to have such a willful woman around you?''
He smiled brightly. ''So what? Being willful is your right from start on. But you still chose to grow to be a good child. Having such enormous powers you could have obliterated the whole world, but you still chose to leave it complete when you left. Willful? I want to see what is really willful in your eyes.''
While he spoke the two dimples became more pronounced and would come and go by each word. She stared at them and then at his face and could literally feel the warmth coming from him, his being. ''What kind of creature you are, I do not care. You chose to use the human form so keep on doing so. But one day you have to show me your true form. I am curious.''
He nodded and patted her head slightly. ''Your powers are still too little to be able to handle the pressure that my body produces. Please, grow your powers slowly. If you grow them to fast, the balance inside your body won't be created. You are now very powerful. I admit that. But your balance is still unsteady. You didn't even pass half of the century of human life and you are this powerful. Do you think this is good?''
Kendra remembered when she always nagged Isaa about growing powers too fast and chuckled. ''I understand. When I come out I will go to closed cultivation for many years together with Isaa. She needs to stabilize her powers as well. Thank you for your care.'' She came closer and without warning, she hugged his arm.
''I wanted to hug your waste but you are at the moment still too tall for me so it would be to awkward. I hope you don't mind me being so close.'' Kendra liked being hugged. All the things that happened in the past and this life made her realize how much she missed those two people. ''I will live quietly here next few years. After that, I will go to closed cultivation. I think those two people don't really understand parenting. The rule to throw away child by birth is the stupidest thing I ever heard in life.'' Both lifetimes.
