Lumiere & Lucretia Arc
---
(POV: Lumiere)
I lay there in my bed, contemplating Simone's words.
I couldn't just stay here, paralyzed by my own thoughts, while someone out there needed my help.
"Why am I still lying here? I can't let my personal issues... hold me back," I muttered to myself, finally finding the resolve to get up.
I mustered all the strength I could, and stood up.
Then, I made my way to the door, ready to go meet with Simone. All I had to do was apologize to her and tell her I'd help. That would fix everything, right?
"No.."
The moment I stepped into the hallway, doubt crept back into my mind. Had I really done enough for Ravenna? The guilt of neglecting her in her final moments tore at my heart. "I wasted the precious time we had together," I whispered.
I wasn't in the right state of mind to do anything...
