Chapter 60: Beastfolk, Demons, and Chaotic Dates – Interlude
It was an early Tuesday morning, one of those rare days when snow didn’t fall.
I had just returned from cleaning the general store as usual and was quietly munching on the bacon and fried eggs Raven had prepared for breakfast.
“It’s already been four days... and still no news.”
The date with Sabrina had been on Saturday. Today marked four days since the chaos in the subway tracks.
Yet, despite the time that had passed, there had been no word from Anser.
Sabrina and Anser had definitely exchanged contact information back then, so why had it been so silent?
I couldn’t help but worry. What if something had gone wrong?
“Hey, temp. Are you eating your breakfast with your cheek instead of your mouth?”
“...?!”
Raven’s voice startled me, and only then did I realize I had been holding the bacon to my cheek instead of eating it.
Ugh, this is why you shouldn’t get distracted while eating. I have a bad habit of losing awareness of my surroundings when I’m deep in thought, and it often gets me into trouble.
Last time, I was so lost in thought while showering that I couldn’t remember if I had washed my hair or not.
