"Lyn, I'm sorry, but could you fetch some books from the sixth and eighth pile too?"
"Okay." She ought to worry about it later; first things first is to help Rhys out.
Despite the fact that they had only started getting closer recently, Lyn understood Rhys character quite well. Even though there are people whom he treasures deeply, he cannot bring herself to form one attachment because if he does, it would break him.
Would that make him a selfish person? Many would say so, but Rhys wasn't one of those. In fact, Lyn almost sympathized with the Rhy's situation. She wonders if the day would come when he would be able to truly form an attachment of affection towards someone. Unfortunately, to say that day isn't near.
Until then, Lyn knew she ought to remain by Rhys side. He's even more broken and far gone then she is, and if her presence can at least be comforting or a distraction to him, then so be it. Eventually, she arrived in front of the books.
