Chapter 293: Reiner – Finally Home
I woke up, feeling quite lazy but strangely very satisfied. As my brain transitioned from the dream world to reality, I remembered memories of how I made love with Reiner yesterday before we fell asleep together. I bolted up in bed as I felt around the bed with my hands. Reiner, he’s not here.
Did he leave? Where is he right now?
A sense of illogical paranoia started to fill me up inside. Although, I knew that it was irrational, I couldn’t stop myself from panicking.
“R! Where are you?” I called out loudly.
I heard the sound of a door closing before I heard his reply.
“I’m here. Sorry, Natalia. I thought you were still sleeping so I went to peel you the apples that Laura got from yesterday...” Reiner replied before smiling comfortingly at me.
“Oh...” I said softly.
“You don’t need to panic,” Reiner said calmly.
“I thought you had left...” I admitted.
“Well, I haven’t. Some apple?” Reiner said as he came to stand next to my bed. I could sense his presence nearby before his hand reached out and patted my shoulder.
“Umm...let’s go see the doctor soon. I want these eyepatches removed,” I said impatiently.
