I saw Andrew eat the medicine. His face was stiff as he looked at me with eager eyes.
"Why are you staring at me?" I asked Andrew with a smile. I could see his body stiffen as my lips curled up. There was a tremble in his throat as he waited patiently for me to be near him.
"Can we rest?" I asked as I sat beside Andrew. My hand held his as a smile left my lips. "I am tired."
Andrew did not say anything. He simply nodded. Although the sun was still up I could sense the tiredness taking over me. I was tired and I felt exhausted.
Was it because of everything that has happened today? Or just today's events were nerve-racking enough to make me such a mess.
I did not do anything else but looked at Andrew from time to time. I was tired and needed sleep. I knew that it was evident that I could not progress if I did not sleep. I needed time to sit back and relax for my brain to work.
