"Why are we here?" asked Raelle as she looked at the scene before her.
Right after lunch, he did bring her out. On a ten minute walk from the cabin, was a ski resort. And Shui Xian had brought her to the ski slope. It wasn't crowded but there were quite a few skiers around. Some looked like sports enthusiasts and some were just here to enjoy.
Shui Xian fixed the knit cap she was wearing before he held her hand and made her sit on the bench saying, "We are here to find freedom." Raelle looked at his face as he went on, "Have you ever thought of having wings?" Raelle blinked at him. "A pair of skis are like a pair of wings. Trust me, it makes you feel like taking a flight to freedom."
An attendant passed them their ski boots. Shui Xian first helped her wear her ski boots. Seeing him crouching down before her to put on her boots, she said, "You don't have to do it though. I don't even know how to ski."
