Cassandra who had slept roughly more than Siroos, realised he was in a state of sleep. She pursed her lips in understanding and grabbed his face.
"Hey! Look at me?" She let her warmth seep into him, slowly awakening his sleep-induced mind. Realisation slowly hit him that he wasn't in a shared dream with Cassandra but had woken up.
"Oh!" Siroos pressed his forehead with her and her low giggle rang out. She patiently waited, letting him take his time. Once he was fully awake, they decided to jump down from the tree.
Sirros securely kept her in his arms and leapt. He landed softly and let Cassandra stand on her feet, stabilising her.
"You good?" Cassandra asked, placing her hand on his back.
"Yes, I just need to wash my face," he informed her, still rubbing his eyes.
"We have hot water, soup and bread. Come quickly," Faris called out to them frantically waving his hand.
