Xiran returned to his room late. Lights were dimmed and Aselia was asleep.
"Did she eat?" He inquired from Frila who was keeping watch over her.
"Yes, and took her medication as well."
"Alright, you can go Frila." She nodded and left the room.
He slowly climbed into the bed so as not to wake her up and ducked under the blanket. He stole a glance at her peaceful face and closed his eyes.
"Xiran..." she called him slowly and his eyes flew open.
"Yes, are you alright?" He placed his elbow on the pillow and supported his head on his hand to look at her properly. She had opened her eyes and was looking at him.
"Did you eat?" She asked in a sleepy voice hardly able to open her eyes. She was still concerned about that, he thought.
"Umm...no. I got stuck at work, I will eat tomorrow." He reassured her.
