Bab 191: Ancient Ruin

[: Daniel POV :] .

"Your name is Katie? That's a good name,"

I complimented with a genuine smile.

It was a simple name and it has warmth in it.

"Thanks. I never heard of anyone complimenting me before, so it's kind of nice,"

She responded with a wide, genuine smile, adjusting her hair with confidence yet shy that came from the unexpected compliment.

"But what's your name? All this time, I still haven't heard your name?"

She curiously asked, a subtle eagerness in her demeanor suggesting a genuine interest in getting to know more about me.

"Well, my name's Daniel,"

I introduced, and in that exchange of names, we had formed a common friendly connection.

"I see, so it's Daniel, huh?"

For some reason, it seemed that she was absorbed by my name, as if it held a significance that intrigued her.

I never thought that my name could be so attractive that someone could lose their thoughts on it.
