The Other Human

"... N-no, it's just... C-Cairo..."

Gael was lost with his thought, and became massively confused about what to say next about her.

Especially after Selene casually introduced herself to having the last name he is familiar with.

But because he couldn't be sure that the woman in front of him was what he actually thought, he immediately replaced all the words in his thoughts with another question.

"Ah.. um... What.. Race?"

He asked her hesitantly, already changing his mind in a few seconds before blurting them out.

It was as if he was afraid to hear her answer.

His heartbeats started pounding loudly inside his chest while biting his lip.

The situation makes him entirely uncomfortable, especially when the rumor of a human wandering around the town started to fill in his mind.

Gael knows more than anyone else in the town that he is in a difficult situation with a woman whose smell is different from the rest.
