"What is it?" asked Mori, laying down.

His head rested against the not-so-soft pillow. 

He had barely moved from the bed since he had come back.

"Nothing," said Aleesia. "You, what is it? You've been looking at me a lot."

She was sitting in a newly acquired armchair. 

It was an expensive kindle purchase, at their level at least. 

Although expensive, it was necessary, said Aleesia. She reasoned he would need the bed for himself, which made no sense, but he still bought the chair for her.

Its quality was pretty good, and while he didn't try it, she was in it most of the time.

"You remind me of Aura," said Mori.

"Ehh. You sure that's what you want to say?" she replied, frowning.

Mori chuckled.

As he laughed, he started choking, quickly sitting upright in the bed.

Aleesia quickly grabbed a mug, filling it with water. She ran to Mori to give it to him, only for it to be thrown to the ground.
