It was now three months after Rowena woke up... with Raphael by her side. Even when she had guilt-tripped him hard and mentioned his family, the man didn't bat an eye and said that they would be alright.
"I have several more brothers, and so they won't miss me that much," Raphael replied nonchalantly.
"Oh, that sounds fun," she said, feeling jealous that she had no siblings to share. "How many brothers do you have?"
"Six," Raphael said with a smile. "That's why my parents wouldn't worry about me too much."
Rowena couldn't believe that kind of excuse at first, but then she temporarily gave up on trying to convince him to leave. If a person wanted to go, then they would leave her.
"So... that means, you don't need t go home soon?" she asked him again. "Are you sure?"
"I am sure," Raphael shrugged. "I like it here."
