Chapter 101: Departure

Aylin and Azimir stayed in the jungle until the wee hours of dawn, not leaving each other's embrace even for a moment. Whenever Aylin tried to move away from him, Azimir would hug her tight, not allowing her to leave him and eventually, Aylin gave up fighting him. Anyway, she would be meeting him after a long time. She might as well make use of this opportunity and hold him close to her heart's content.

It was only when they felt the first rays of the sun fall on them that they reluctantly let go of each other. The night had passed quicker than they had thought and now, when it was time for Azimir to leave, how they wished for the time to go back so that they could spend more time with each other.

Azimir kept staring at Aylin as he held her hand while they walked back. Fortunately for him, there was no one on the streets and he did not hesitate to hold her palm, relishing in the feel of her soft hand in his.
