Lucretia & Lumiere Arc.
(POV: Lumiere)
Simone and I went up the stairs.
We had already finished talking about well... feelings, and that was one of the few things I spared little time to talk about. So, the fact that I could relate with her in that aspect did for me more than I could even realize.
"Honestly, she's a little too competent..."
I smiled.
Just then, Simone turned and looked at me who was behind and then asked me, "Excuse me, did you say anything?"
"Eh, uh, no... I didn't..."
I didn't realized that I'd said my initial comment outloud. I guess I was just that impressed.
I increased my climbing speed on the stairs to catch up with Simone, and when I did, she looked at me with side eyes and then asked, So, where's your daughter? I haven't seen her since well... I can't even remember."
I chuckled and explained, "Yeah! I promised her a game of hide and seek."
