The girl glanced through the windshield and saw Sam riding at a dangerously fast pace. Concerned, she wondered why he was driving so recklessly, fearing he might end up in an accident.
At that moment, Roslin woke up and noticed the girl was awake. Without wasting a second, she began bombarding her with questions, asking if she was alright.
The girl was taken aback by Roslin's sudden barrage of questions but quickly realized it was out of genuine concern.
Roslin, relieved to know the girl was fine, smiled warmly. The kind gesture made the girl feel comforted, even though they barely knew each other.
Roslin then introduced herself and chuckled, saying, "It's funny that we're in this situation and don't even know each other's names. What's yours?"
The girl hesitated briefly before replying, "Naro."
Liabilities also introduced himself and took the opportunity to name the others who were still asleep. Pointing toward Sam, Roslin added, "I heard you two had a full conversation without even exchanging names. His name's Sam."
Meanwhile, At that moment engulfed by the scent Sam rode the bike recklessly, trying hard to remember why the scent seemed so familiar.
while on the other hand it seemed like something was telling him not to remember the scent.
His hands being cold, frozen stiff in the nights cold temperature.
Naro, noticing his pace and how exposed he was to the wind, told Liabilities to honk at him. Confused, Liabilities asked why.
Naro explained, "I know how it feels to ride at night. Judging by his speed, something's bothering him.
He's leading ahead of everyone, with no protection from the wind. Plus, it doesn't look like he's wearing gloves. Blow the horn and make him stop for a moment."
She then removed her gloves and handed them to Liabilities, adding, "Give these to him. They'll keep his hands a bit warmer."
Liabilities did as instructed, honking at Sam, who broke free from his own thoughts immediately assumed something was wrong as he heard the horn and pulled over.
Bori and July Boy, noticing the stop, asked Liabilities if there was an issue. Liabilities assured them it was nothing and just a short needs and told them to continue ahead.
That being said, both of them instead decided to take a break for themselves too and wandered into the woods.
Liabilities approached Sam and handed him the gloves. From the car, Naro watched through the windshield as Sam gratefully accepted the gloves, his face lighting up with happiness.
Liabilities and Sam seemed to talk for a while, longer than expected. When Liabilities finally returned, Roslin teased, "What were you two talking about? Doesn't seem like regular guy talk to me. What are you, best friends now?"
Liabilities, unsure of her implication, replied, "We were just talking about his reckless riding. He said he was in a hurry to reach the nearest town and get Naro checked at a clinic—or a hospital, if necessary."
Naro, realizing Sam's concern was entirely for her, was deeply touched and said "He didn't have to go through all that trouble for me. He doesn't even know me, let alone what I look like."
Roslin smirked. "That's just how our little Mr. High Maintenance is. Reckless, yes, but always with a purpose."
Liabilities reassured her, "It's all settled now. I told him you're fine and explained everything. He was relieved to hear that, and he also asked me to thank you for the gloves."
Hearing this, Naro felt a wave of satisfaction and warmth.
Liabilities then started to drive trying to get in ahead of Sam to block the wind for him as he rides the bike behind the car.
As the car was slowly drives ahead Naro looked through the window admiring and appreciating Sam for all he did, and maybe more.
While Sam unknown to the glance of Naro from inside he remainder still outside.
They all continued the journey again with liabilities leading the way and followed by Sam bori and Julyboy with now only few hours to reaching the destination now.
