Breakfast Drama

Raina turned her head instinctively, looking toward the door, and said, “Come in.”Right after she spoke, she realized how inappropriate that was—whose room was this again? It was Leif’s!She, a guest, had spoken before the host did. That was definitely overstepping boundaries. Quickly, she turned to look at Leif. Seeing that he didn’t seem to mind, and the person entering didn’t question it either, as if it was completely natural, the matter passed without comment.Still, she made a mental note: Don’t make such ridiculous mistakes next time.The person who entered was Rael.Rael swept his eyes over the two of them with a peculiar look, clearly itching to ask something, but ultimately said nothing.After a moment, he rubbed his chin and said, trying to sound nonchalant, “So... did I come at a bad time?”Raina turned to look at him. “No, not at all.

Never a Burden

Raina didn’t seem to mind. Propping her chin up with one hand, she replied casually, “Oh, that? I just have too much time on my hands. I like reading random stuff when I’m bored. Picked it up from some miscellaneous books.”The excuse was clearly unconvincing—so half-hearted that she didn’t even bother to make it sound real.

Rael rolled his eyes and slammed the car door shut. "Not at all."Leo laughed heartily. "Come on, I know you're actually thrilled inside! Stop being shy and just admit it!

After tidying up, the three of them—two adults and one child—sat there in silence, staring at each other.Of the three, one couldn’t speak, one couldn’t see, and only she was still considered normal. Though she also had plenty of injuries, at least she could still move around freely.After a while, Raina suddenly looked up at him. “Right, I haven’t changed your dressing yet. Let me take care of that first.”Leif replied, “Okay.”Changing the bandages was going to be a bit gory, so Raina sent Gale upstairs first.She brought over the medical kit and began unwrapping the bandage from Leif’s head.
