After a while, the young man came back into the room. Rain, who had the blankets pulled tightly up to her neck, looked at him with curious eyes. She had not taken a good look at him before, but upon a second look, he was very handsome. Alex felt a set of eyes on him and looked over at Rain, whose cheeks turned red as she quickly averted her eyes and looked down. He smiled and shook his head as he walked over and placed the porridge to the side. "Eat while it is still warm. I will be back. I need to head to the nearest town and get you some robes. While you can't wear the clothes you were wearing before, you can wear some loose-fitting robes. So for now, stay under the blankets to keep warm."
Rain looked up at the young man who was looking back at her with sincere eyes and nodded her head. Alex smiled and turned around, and walked back towards the door. But his feet paused when he heard a soft voice from behind him. "Thank you..."
