"How do you feel?" Elise asked after a while. She still didn't dare to look at Loriel whose head was now on her lap. Somehow, she felt her heart beating fast. This was a foreign feeling to her.
"I feel slightly better," Loriel said, even though his voice sounded reluctant.
Gosh.. he missed her lap and wished he could stay there all day, but he knew better not to tire her.
He was quite heavy, even though Elise never complained about it.
"Can you walk?" she asked him attentively.
At that moment, Loriel felt like he wanted to fake being unconscious so he could stay on her lap forever. But.. he didn't have the heart to make her worried.
She was new in this city, obviously didn't have money, and couldn't even navigate her way around.
It would give her a lot of hassle and problems if she suddenly had to care for a stranger like him. Loriel knew she would.
