Mauve sat on the bed as she waited for Mill to return with her bath water. She was tired even though she just woke up and her neck hurt. She wondered if it had to do with the fact that she slept in a particular position for such a long time.
She turned her neck to the left and right side in an attempt to release the tension. She then stretched the rest of her body. She felt a bit sore but it was nothing a little warm bath couldn't take care of.
As if on cue with her thoughts, the door flew open and Mill walked in with the tub and a servant walked behind her with the bathwater.
She watched them place it in the corner before slowly rising to her feet with the sheets still wrapped around her body. She stood beside the bed until the servant left the rolma nd Mill walked to where she stood.
