When I went out of the prayer room, Tani was waiting for me outside while the priest was gone. Tani immediately skipped her steps towards me with a bright smile on her face.
"My lady!" she called and stopped at my side. "Did you find peace in praying?"
"Peace?" My brow arched, rocking my head lightly. "Well, you can say that."
I swore to God that I would live the way I wanted it to. So I guessed that was what they called being at peace after prayer.
'I did a pretty good job praying. I should do it more often.' I nodded, smiling in high spirits as I cast Tani a look. She grinned happily when she saw the smile on my face.
"Oh, Tani. You're so adorable."
"My Lady." She blushed and gazed down, a little shy at that little compliment.
Although Tani was only a year younger than Marsella, this old soul had lived two lifetimes. It made me want to pamper her and preserve her innocence. Her bright energy helped my mood too.
