A Bit of Multitasking
Xenia ran towards Jayra's chamber as soon as she heard that her friend had awakened. Barging her way inside, she couldn't help the wave of relief that washed over her when she saw Jayra sitting up on her bed.
"My Queen," Jayra whispered to her with a smile.
In that instant, Xenia pounced on Jayra, hugging her as she sobbed. "How could you smile like that!" she scolded.
"And how could you cry like that, Your Grace?" Jayra weakly chuckled as she gently patted her friend's back. "I'm doing well thanks to you finding me at the right time. You looked so ethereal landing with your wings splayed out like that."
Xenia clicked her tongue. "Save your energy," she ordered. "And don't talk too much. You're still recovering."
"Hmm, but I don't want to waste time," Jayra snorted, even if she looked weak doing so. "Damn that Demon King! He told me that I won't remember a thing, but I clearly remember everything that happened!"
