Leonel stumbled backward and almost fell over before catching himself. Or rather, he thought he caught himself before a sneaky foot hit the back of his heel and he was sent tumbling over.
He didn't have the chance to give Nilrem a glare before he hit the ground. However, the beauty in his arms didn't seem to care in the slightest.
Aina didn't say anything, and her sobs were mostly silent, but Leonel didn't need to hear them to feel them. She hugged him so tightly that he thought he might suffocate, but he really couldn't bring himself to say anything about it. He could only hold her waist and rub her back, slowly controlling his own emotions.
He wasn't the only one who had lost people, and his death would have hit Aina no less than what Leonel was experiencing right now.
