"Congratulations, Sister! Your wound has closed up nicely, and even the scarring is minimal. You still shouldn't do anything strenuous for a few days at least, but you are good to travel now," Xia said after another examination.
Eve nodded, but didn't say a word. Her eyes turned towards the door into the living room, but her gaze was pointed at something beyond, something unseen. There was a heavy, tense air around her, and it was impossible for Xia to miss it.
"Are you alright? Is there's something on your mind, Sister?"
Eve focused on Xia and made a slow nod. "Yes. I'm worried about Mister Kraust. He acted strangely this morning."
"Isn't he always weird? I learned to accept it. He doesn't feel like a bad person, even if he is such a tyrant almost all the time!" Xia pouted and crossed her hands on her chest.
"He certainly has his share of mental disorders, but it's beyond that." Eve's hands clenched on the hems of her clothes. "Xia, I want to you to be ready for… anything."
