I was fighting the burning in my eyes as I stepped into the lavish carriage parked in front of the inn. The people were watching, throwing menacing and malicious glares to my direction. The knight who had apologized to me earlier offered his hand to assist me. But I strode past him and took my seat through the open door.
My vision started to blur. I blinked the tears away as my father settled across me, his face registering nonchalance though his eyes were a mask of grimace.
I swallowed, feeling the world turn around me.
What would happen if Lavi and the others came back only to find out that I was gone and well on my way back home? Would they still continue searching for the Phantom Thief even without me?
