The next day, Theodore got dressed like a commoner. Over the months, he had grown a beard and his black hair fell near his chest. Compared to the first time she saw him, he looks different now. He has become somewhat lean but he's strong as always.
He shifts his gaze to Nina when after he tied his hair, she wondered why he's growing his hair. It kind of suits him.
"How long will it take for you to return?" she asks.
"More than a week,"
"What are you going to do there?"
"Fight the men who were threatening my people," he answers.
"You should be safe,"
"Don't worry about me, I will be fine,"
He knelt on the floor to take a proper look at her face. "You shouldn't leave this place until I return,"
"You are worrying too much about me,"
"Listen to me, Nina. I am not trying to scare you, it's not safe," Theodore warned her, holding her face.
