You’ve been walking around for already three hours looking for Q. You’ve tried asking the by standers and asking the police for a help but, none of them spotted Q.

Every time Kai sees you starts to lose hope and looks like crying, he’ll just simply press his hand on yours and shows you a warm smile. With that, it somehow washes off your excess worries.
