"Of course," Aliana easily accepted the answer. It couldn't be the only answer, but it was an acceptable one at that.

Hatta sighed softly. There was a three way fork in the path, and he hesitated for a moment, before taking a turn down the right hand one.

Aliana followed after glancing at the other two. She knew taking the right hand path would be smartest since to exit all they had to do was go right. Even though it gave her some worry.

(gtg to bed)

Hatta sighed softly, and kept walking.

Aliana wish she knew why he kept sighing. She let one Of her hands reach out again to trail against the smooth stone wall.

Hatta shook his head again. He was wrapped up in his own thoughts, which were mostly what he was sighing at.

Aliana bit her lip before asking to sastifiy her curiosity, "Why do you keep sighing?"

"Hmm? Oh. Nothing. Just thinking." He replied, looking over at her for a moment, then away again.

"Is there a reason you won't look at me?" Aliana asked noticing his little pattern. She was starting to worry he didn't like her.

"What? Oh, no. I just…I'm thinking. That's all." He replied with a shrug, looking straight at her this time, hardly blinking.

"Oh," Aliana gave him a big smile, "That's fine! I was just curious."

He smiled back, and nodded. "Alright." He replied with a shrug.

Aliana was glad he was smiling. She pulled her hand off the wall, "I'm surprised we haven't hit a dead end yet."

Hatta laughed. "Mhm. Me too." He agreed, shaking his head a little bit.

"Watch," Aliana let out a melodic laugh, "This'll be a dead end."

He laughed. "Ah. Maybe." He shrugged a little, glancing over at her, then back at their path ahead.

Aliana's laugh turned to a slight giggle, "I hope not, but knowing my luck it will be."

Hatta smiled a little. "Mhm. We'll see, though."

"That we will," Aliana agreed quietly. She put her hands into the jacket pockets.

Hatta continued to walk, whistling softly.

Aliana hummed as she walked a grin on her face. She was having a lot more fun than she thought she would. Given the circumstance and all.

Hatta was still walking along, taking turns as they came to them. He wondered when they would hit a dead end.

Aliana had some slight trouble keeping up with Hatta. Sometimes it was easy, sometimes she had to do a quick sprint to catch up. She was starting to wonder if they were walking in circles.

Hatta frowned a little as they came to a fork that he was sure they had seen before. "Are we…going in circles?"

"I was wondring the same thing," Alian took her bag off and grabbed a pen she could bare to part with and put it on the ground, "Let's go again and see if we find my pen again."
