Eiden walked side by side with Airie. Their difference in height was immediately noticeable. Standing at six feet tall, Eiden always cast a long shadow, while Airie, being a little below five and a half feet, looked much smaller beside him. Her short stature, however, was not something that diminished her presence it added to her petite charm, making her seem both approachable and quietly graceful.
As they strolled, Eiden decided to break the silence by initiating small talk. He wasn't sure how receptive she would be, but to his surprise, Airie didn't ignore him. Instead, she answered and even maintained the light conversation, showing that she wasn't closed off to him at all.
