    Kisa was transfixed for a second and then said with an


    awkward expression, “Why are you talking about that all of a sudden? You can quit if you like. I don’t


    care, and I don’t want to care.”


    Gilbert suddenly stopped talking and just smoked in silence. Smoke lingered around, and the side of


    his face


    looked a little sad.


    Kisa wrung her fingers and said softly, “Smoking too


    much is not good. It is bad for your health and the people around you. If you can quit, then quit it. It is


    also for your own good.”


    Gilbert just smiled and said nothing. Kisa pursed her lips and apanied him in silence. She felt like


    he took


    forever to smoke this cigarette, especially in this silent atmosphere. After a long while, he finally


    finished the cigarette and tossed the cigarette butt into the fire with


    the flick of his fingers. He then put his hands on his


    knees, looking worried, as if something was on his mind. Kisa felt he was not in a good mood, so she


    kept quiet.


    Gilbert kept his head low in silence for a long moment before he smacked his knees and got to his feet.


    “Well, it


    is time to send you up.”


    Kisa looked at him with surprise. “Send me up? Aren’t we going up together?”


    “It is us going up together, but we have to do it one by one. You go up first.” Gilbert’s smile looked


    natural.


    Kisa looked at him for a long while but could not tell what was wrong. Gilbert looked up at the cave


    opening and then bent down to move thergest piece of stone and positioned it below the lowest side


    of the cave opening. He then stacked the other three stones in turn on thergest stone.


    Kisa watched quietly and in puzzlement. She could not help but ask, “These four stones are only one


    meter high when being stacked together. Even if you stand up there, you can’t reach the edge of the


    opening, let alone me. This method does not work, does it?”


    “If you step on my shoulders, then it will be high enough to reach that cave opening.”


    “Huh?” Kisa looked at him in shock. “Stepping on your shoulders?”


    “Yeah.” Gilbert put the lighter into her pocket and


    whispered to her, “When you get up there, go back in the


    direction you rolled down. Try to get to a ce where there is a signal before dark. If you run into a


    blizzard, find a cave to take shelter in and find some firewood to keep warm.” He zipped up her down


    jacket and then put the hood on her. He rubbed her cold hands and said in a deep voice, “Be careful on


    the way. Your foot has yet to heal, so find a thicker branch as a walking stick when you go up there to


    avoid slipping and falling, and—”


    “Gilbert…” Kisa could not help but interrupt him. At first, she was quite happy to be finally leaving the


    cave, but when she heard him say what seemed to be hisst


    words, she was worried and in a panic again. ‘No, no, no…


    I


    She shook her head vigorously. ‘He is not injured, at most is a little hungry. How will he die?‘ She did


    not dare to think but asked him anxiously, “If I go up first, how do you go upter? There are no more


    other stones in this


    cave.”


    “You are silly.” Gilbert pinched her face in amusement. ” When you get up there, find some vines and


    pull me up.”


    He made it seem like it was easy, but Kisa felt it was not. First, she did not know where to find vines in


    this freezing weather. Second, he was much bigger while she was petite; she could not pull him up


    herself.


    Kisa was notfortable with that idea, so she said, ”


    Why don’t you go up first, and then it will be easier for


    you to find the vines to pull me up?”
