Josh patiently waited for Akira to relax, keeping his eyes on him until he could see him relax just a little more. When he took a few more steps out, Josh smirked ever so slightly and did the same while keeping a hold of his hand.

“You okay so far?” Josh asked while looking back at Akira and keeping a hold of his hand, curious as to what was on his mind at the moment.
