I was still in a shocking daze as Kayden continued to babble to me about Brad's heroic fight. I know he rescued Kayden from the Crows in a devious way. Thought he paid off these drug dealers. It never crossed my mind he had to fight with some scary dude as Kayden is describing to rescue him from that hellhole.
The sensible part of me, my mind is still trying to process my reaction to this but my poor heart keeps on glowing with a flicker of hope that Brad isn't a total scumbag and kind of went the extra mile to reunite me with Kayden.
Or it was all part of the big façade?
"I can see an ice cream shop around the corner. Craving for ice cream? " I asked Kayden. The gloom on his face has disappeared with no trace of the tears that were flooding his cheeks.
"Yeah, can't turn down the offer. " He grins.
I smiled in return and shifted my focus on the road as I drove in the direction of the ice cream shop that was glittering on the corner of the street.
