Chapter 63: Talk to me
"You are awake?" Ravi’s voice was soft as he drove down the road.
Arlen yawned and slowly opened his eyes. He yawned again and blinked first with confusion and later with shock, he felt a copious warmth flow gush into his limbs and bones, it was as if every vein in his body was opened and cleansed. He let out a sigh of comfort, the feeling was extremely wonderful and comfortable, like soaking in a warm bath after a hard day at work.
Ravi glanced at him, he had been afraid that being in the presence of Alya would affect Arlen so he had asked him for a Vital tea leaf. Seeing that she was here to request something from him, she had given him the entire sapling so freely.
The sapling was the size of a palm, young and slender with four leaves on it. Each leaf was a bright verdant green, with faint purple energy so dense that it materialized drifting out from it.
Ravi had fed Arlen one of the leaves and the sapling was now in a small pot at the back of the car.
"I Feel like I have slept for at least ten weeks. It has been a while since I have felt so comfortable." He sighed as he adjusted the seat, "How long have I been sleeping?" He was truly so comfortable, that he could even feel as if his ability had gotten stronger. It was the most odd of feelings.
He looked to the left where Ravi was driving quietly, his expression was off. His eyes were colder, much colder.
"Fifteen minutes."
There was not a change in his voice, his inflection was still the same.
