Chapter 41: My Home Is Falling Apart. I Feel Like Crying (5)
Warm water cascaded down from above, trickling down my cheeks and pooling on the floor.
The sensation of water breaking into tiny droplets and gently drumming against my skin was something telekinesis could never replicate. It felt like warm water drops were wrapping my whole body in a comforting embrace.
How long had it been since I’d felt a hot shower like this? Was this heaven?
Standing directly under the showerhead, a smile naturally crept across my lips.
"This is amazing... I could stay like this forever..."
Hail civilization! Praise the inventor of the showerhead!
I silently shouted my gratitude, enjoying the water as if I were playing in it. Only after I was fully satisfied did I finally turn off the water and rub my face with both hands.
Staying here and relaxing longer might be tempting, but this was Alice’s home. It wouldn’t be right to overindulge.
Besides, what if I got lightheaded and collapsed?
After Alice had asked if I wanted to bathe together earlier, the embarrassment would haunt me forever.
"Anyway... there’s a mirror here."
Peeling the wet hair off my face, I had been reaching for the shampoo when I noticed the mirror on the wall.
