Bab 42: Hope

Despite her eyes being closed, Mineah couldn't help but try to shield her eyes from the gusts of wind and rain. The storm was starting to pick up in strength, it seemed, and it was almost to the point that the very rains themselves were loud enough to prevent her from hearing anything else around her.

"Again, hold on tightly," Alexa spoke into her ear. "This is going to feel weird at first."

Mineah nodded, hoping that the older woman felt her do the gesture.
