The Coronation

I continued practicing how to walk with my new condition until I finally mastered it. It was strange being unable to feel my own legs move, but it did help me gain more feeling. My perception was dull, but at least I could still feel things above the knee now.

That gave me hope for my future married life.

Millie and Dante sat at the table with me as I ate my meal. Millie spoke, "How are you feeling today Seri?"

I munched on my food, "I have some sensation back, but I still can't feel a thing beneath my knees. It's weird how I can still walk though."

Millie sighed, "Perhaps the more you practice the better it will get."

I put my fork down, "By the way... Does anyone know that I was poisoned?"

Millie shook her head, "No. We didn't tell anyone. We were too preoccupied with other things so we didn't have the time to tell anyone."

I nodded, "That was probably for best. But was no one suspicious? I didn't attend the funeral yesterday. And there's no way Bertram wouldn't panic."
