Olivia patted Javien's back. She took five minutes to calm him down.
"Are you okay now?" she said while gently pushing him back to see his face clearly. But Javien only lowered his head, stiff and unmoving ..... as if he was still holding onto something he hadn't let go of yet.
Olivia smiled softly. Her hand reached up and wiped the last traces of tears from his eyes. Then she exhaled slowly.
She looked at Javien again. Patted his shoulder gently. And immediately jumped to one conclusion.....
Maybe he's embarrassed.
Olivia grinned, her eyes sparkling with mischief as she stared at him.
Then , without even realising it ,her small little hand lifted high and landed square on Javien's back.
PAPP!!
"Don't be embarrassed!! This is completely normal!!" she said cheerfully, her hand not stopping, its enthusiastic patting.
Avelvion pressed his hand to his forehead and scratched his head that wasn't even itchy. Clearly irritated watching Olivia's behaviour.
