He paused for a moment in front of her and then tilted his head towards her through the corner of his sleepy eye, looking at her scalp and then her little body which slowly began to grow taller, whispering in a respectful stoic tone amidst a hushed chorus before she turned to him and walked away.

"I'm glad you're okay..."

"Glad you came back safe!" His voice came with a cold, deep, manly accent, and then disappeared.
