Rowena tried to blink a couple of times, and when she rubbed her eyes, it was finally gone. She took a deep breath and realized she was still seeing things.
Even just the familiar shadow of the man whom she considered her best friend made what she presumed to be her okay self become reduced into tears.
Hot tears stung her eyes and leaked out of her eyes, which she furiously wiped.
Not knowing when Raphael would return, Rowena quickly made the decision to rush back into her room. At least it was the place where she could get privacy.
Once the door shut down behind her, Rowena slowly stumbled into the bed and buried her head into the pillows. There was a terrible ache across her chest once again.
Raphael finished washing the dishes, and so he returned back to the hut. As expected, Rowena didn't wait for him. He actually wished he could say goodnight. It seemed rude not to.
