Chapter 42: The Day After
The morning light pierced through the foggy window, casting a soft glow over the room. I slowly opened my eyes, letting out a deep breath as I sat up.
Running a hand through my hair, I swept my gaze across the room. The unwashed plates of our dinner food were kept on the table. The small almera was slightly open.
Small, uneven breathing noises could be heard inside the room, it was Aeris. She was still sleeping; her face was relaxed, with her pink hair unkempt. A few strands falling over her face.
Her chest rising gently with each breath, her entire frame was covered by a white sheet with her trembling beneath it. It was a given due to the cold outside.
I slowly planted my feet onto the floor and made my way towards her. I crouched beside her, slowly placing my hands beneath her, taking her into a princess carry.
I made my way towards the bed and gently placed her on the warm mattress, putting a sheet over her.
"It should be enough"
[Oh my, prince charming is actually charming?~ Who could've thought.] Dante started again with his daily banter.
I am just making sure she does not fall sick right before our departure to Rasendorf...
Good morning.
