[ Kitae doesn't stop to check what Insik is doing even once. Even a moments hesitation could lead him to being dragged kicking and screaming away from Suah, and somewhere more isolated where he would have very little chance of actual escape. This opportunity for freedom is being handed to him on a silver platter, and he'll be damned if he's going to ruin it.
That is, he doesn't look back until Suah's got her arms around him. Caught up in the moment as he is, Kitae actually wraps his arms around Suah as well, holding her close for about a second, before he finally twists his head around to look back into the shack.
No Insik... but Kitae does spot were Insik shoved boards aside. They'd fallen partly back into place, but there's a gap letting in weak light to a building that was almost entirely dark before.
His heart hammers in his chest as his mind reels to come up with a reason for it. Insik could have grabbed them both easily, he didn't have to run. Was he scheming something? Was he letting Kitae really think he was safe before he zipped around the side of the building to grab them both?
With that thought in mind Kitae jerks back, but grabs onto Suah's wrist, trying to tug her away from the building. ]
