She waited patiently, not helping but to notice his short hesitation. A sting of suspicion of what would be the source of his hesitation bothered her. It wasn't just her that the black mamba was annoying, after all. She gave the reptile a disbelief glance, as if asking for some privacy.

The sudden silent was growing heavy around her, pressing her. It was so weird... "It's so silent..." She comented, trying to break it. Probably she would just keep saying stupid things, as that silence was killing her.
