Chapter 14

This rundown inn is more luxurious for me than I thought—quite a low bar, if you ever lived in a dump. Small, clean, with the exception of cracks and the dirty exterior covered in dust—probably from the dust blowing from the explosions in the battlefield.

I still remember the dirt road from we traveled—full of holes and too much dust.

Now I sit with a kid next to me at an old table, substituting for my sisters in my head. However did it come to this?

I try to entertain this girl I just met, but it seems she’s entertaining herself well enough. I just need to listen.

I feel like running out, I didn’t have to deal with this with my sisters. It seems the phrase “absence makes the heart grow fonder” is real, not like I had the time to spend with my sisters in the first place. I just wish she slowed down—not like I can understand what she’s saying in the first place.

How long has it been? I regret this connection. I wanna dig a hole and die. Do people from Lechia talk this much? Is the farming that boring?

Kasia is interrupted from her talk as the door in this room specifically—the lounge—opens. My hope walks through the doorway.

It seems Arryav came to my rescue, I shall change my opinion of him, as of now he’s my savior. Apparently he needs to talk to me. Anything please—let me get away.

I immediately take the way out given to me by my guide, immediately.

I glance at the girl while leaving through the door, I pity her sad face, but I prefer to live, thank you very much.

It seems the guy is also surprised by the speed I left. I imagine he would do the same if he were me, but he is not. He’d probably listen to her, but my sanity is important too.

It seems avoidance was my strategy in life I just have to accept it. I try to hide my smile with my back turned on both of them.
