The Love that Never Really Dies

At Avenport.

Perhaps it was because things were looking good, but Sasha was especially well-rested and refreshed when she woke up in the morning.

Naturally, things would’ve been better if she wasn’t sore all over.

“You’re up,” commented Sebastian, who happened to walk up the stairs and saw that she was awake. He had a kettle of boiled water with him.

That was why the water for the baths and the drinking water had to be boiled in the kitchen before being used.

Sasha saw him pouring the hot water into the basin of icy water, so she grabbed a thick coat and wrapped it around her. She replied, “Yeah, I’m up. What time is it? Are you going to work today?”

“Yep. What about you? What’s your plan for the day?” asked Sebastian nonchalantly as he handed her a towel.

She actually wanted to go to her family. She had a meal with her dad on the day before, but there were too many guests there, so the two of them didn’t get to have a hearty chat.
