Sorin's words shocked Raul. Sorin had been sold? So soon? Raul and Damien had been sold after a month here.
"I don't want to be separated from you," Sorin added. And this time, he cried again, still hugging Raul.
Raul didn't know what to say. He was surprised to hear the news and sad. It felt as if someone was trying to take away his happiness.
Eventually, Raul and Sorin moved to the bed, and Sorin cried until he fell asleep in Raul's embrace.
As for Raul, he stayed awake that night. He only fell asleep when it was already five in the morning.

The next day, Raul was awakened by the guard, waking them up at six. Raul panicked as he searched for Sorin, who was still hugging him in his sleep.
Raul sighed in relief when he saw Sorin still there. But usually, if a slave was sold, their Master would take them immediately, which meant they would take Sorin today.
