It's already midnight, but I'm still awake. My mind couldn't stop thinking about the choices I made.
Am I doing the right thing? Pushing everyone away? For the safety of this world. At the expense of hurting people important to me?
I sigh and get up. I don't think I could sleep with all these thoughts coming through my mind. I think I need to get a breath of fresh air. Maybe nature will also help me reevaluating my life choices.
I am about to get out of the carriage when I heard footsteps coming in my direction. I immediately froze. Is it the guard who takes turns to guard the place? Does he know that I am still awake?
I wait for the footsteps to fade away, and it stops. But it sounds like it stops close to the carriage I am sleeping in. I frown. Did the Great Ruler assign someone to guard me tonight?
All my questions were answered when I heard a voice outside.
"Csille."
