"But… I want to wear something comfortable, like a dress before sleeping. I'm sweating." If she successfully went back to her tent after fooling him, she wouldn't even think about coming back.
"Hmm, you can wear my shirt. It is made of cotton. So, it will be more than comfortable," saying that Arthur handed a shirt to her.
"…"
The shirt was indeed comfortable. She couldn't say 'no' to that. If she did, her intentions would be exposed in the next instant. She still tried for one last time. She opened her mouth, "But-"
Crack!
A suspicious sound came from the outside.
Veronica and Arthur became quiet. After spending some time with him during the mission, she had become much more alert.
However, she couldn't hide her fear of predatory animals. She grabbed his clothes and inched closer to him, thinking a wolf might have been walking outside the tent.
