#Chapter17 September 28th

/"Hi./"

I looked up and saw Cayden standing beside me, blocking the rays of the sun. I gave him a questioning look as he took a seat beside me. I looked over the pond and ignored him.

/"What brings you here?/" He asks, looking at me. I turn my head to the side to face him.

/"Just needed some fresh air,/" I said as I grabbed a water bottle inside my bag, drinking it to hydrate myself. /"What brings you here?/" my turn to ask.

/"Well, let's just say... I wasn't in a good mood today,/" He says.

/"And that you also needed some fresh air?/" I asked, more like saying it. He looked at me and nodded without uttering a word. He took a deep breath and looked at the pond.

/"I used to come here when I was little. My family would always gather around here, right beside this pond to have a picnic,/" He says and looks at me, /"you know, family bonding,/" he chuckles lightly after.
