"Teo... I do know who my master is... you sound as if I could ever forget it - how badly do you think that I was wounded?"

Zoemi furrowed his brows looking at the short girl with a confused expression.

"S-sir Zoemi!?"

"Whoa – there!"

Teo gasped in shock and took a sept back so suddenly that she stumbled upon her own feet and fell down – almost – The black-haired boy reached out and caught her hand and pulled her back on her feet instantly.

"Hey – you gotta be careful, you know?"

"!!!!"

Zoemi smirked but Teo could only cover her mouth with one and, staring at the black-haired boy with trembling eyes full of disbelief.

"Teo...?"

"!!!"

The boy asked and the girl shook her head as if someone dumped a bucket of cold water on her.

"Sir Z-Zoemi?! B-but...! Mistress is holding herself back from visiting you so you won't catch her cold! You can't just visit her! I've heard that you shouldn't even move around yet!"
