~Laith~
I sat in contemplation in my courtyard. Going back and forth on my interaction with Zephirin over the past couple of days. The doubt in my mind growing stronger with the passing second.
I ran my fingers through my hair. I had the pieces of the puzzle with me, the problem is figuring out how they fit together.
The strange feeling at the pit of my stomach didn't give me room to breathe. A constant warning that something was amiss and dangerously so. My thoughts flew to the traveler. He was the only with a vendetta against me that I could think of that might harm me. A heavy storm loomed over my head.
"Why are seated here all by yourself?" Zorra sat beside me.
"I think I'm losing my mind," I expressed and slumped back on the wall. Resting lazily as I stared blankly into the distance.
"I know the feeling," she sighed.
"Trust me, you have no idea what I'm going through," I confessed with a heavy heart.
