I managed to calm myself and released a deep sigh.
After a few minutes of standing there, I felt a familiar presence approaching me. I didn't react until I felt something warm drape around my shoulders.
"Are you worried about Rune, Reina?" I heard him say before he stepped beside me.
"Aren't you supposed to be asleep, Big Brother Eric?" I asked instead.
"I can't sleep." He admitted and looked at me through the reflection in the window.
"Where were you in morning?" He asked, "Master held a meeting with all of us."
"I know, I had gotten my instructions already so, it was fine if I didn't attend." I mumbled as I crossed my arms pulling the edges of his jacket closer to my sides despite not feeling cold.
There was a moment of silence which was taken over by the sound of the crickets chirping outside while I stared off into the distance.
"I can understand that you must be really worried about Rune." Eric spoke up.
