Unspoken thoughts
When I woke up again, it was already nighttime. I didn't know I was that exhausted to sleep throughout the day. But somehow, the sleep helped. I raised my brows when my eyes landed on the figure sitting near the bed.
Hugo was sitting with a parliament in his hand, reading it close to the lamp as there were barely lights inside the room. A subtle smile resurfaced on my face, seeing him still in his uniform. They said a man was even more charming when they were focused, and I couldn't disagree with that.
He looked like a proper nobleman with that serious expression plastered on his face. He just had to refrain from opening his mouth and he would deceive anyone that he was normal. I giggled at the thought, and that made him snap his eyes.
"Rinrin," he called in relief as soon as our eyes met. Hugo immediately set aside the document as he shifted his seat, perching on the edge of the mattress. He looked at me worriedly.
