New morning, New surprises

"Yes.", Jane smiled. "She's really beautiful. You should see her. ", then she laughed. "Ping was slightly scared as he saw her.", Jane started to walk into the direction of the volcano. "I never saw such a beautiful one since my last attack. I was clumsy and bumped into her children. My fault.", she shrugged. After a few meters she stopped and turned around to Tulio. "Don't you want to come? I'm going alone if you don't want to."

Tulio laughed, trying to hide his real fear before he started following her.
He walked fast until he was walking beside her, casually lying one arm over her shoulders.
"Well, someone has to protect you," he joked and laughed as they kept walking.
Truth be told, despite his fears, he did want to see this beautiful animal she spoke of.

Jane stared a moment at his arm on her shoulder, but then ignored it. "I don't need anyone to protect me. Geesh, why are you men always so protective? Ping told me the same. I'm grown up and I always travel on my own. Without anyone else. Stop thinking I'm weak."
