Pride Flag Up

Cali decided to stay at Rui's house. Not because she wanted to guard him, but solely for the fact that living together would have a higher chance of good development of feelings and to know each other more.

She twitched her face before typing a reply. She liked Kane because the latter had no inhibitions in telling her the truth about herself, the good, the bad and the ugly. But sometimes, when Kane tended to overreact on simple things, she must straighten him out.
