In the morning, I get up at dawn. I stay in bed and sigh at the warmth of Alexander's arms for a while.
My muscles are still tired, and I'm not sure I'll be able to walk today. Yet, it's the last day in Polis before the departure! I can't waste it.
There are so many places I haven't visited yet. I'd like to see the central libraries, just to check they're still open. Also, it would be nice to buy some clothes for my alone moments. Even if I can't wear them in the Palace, I can use them in Kyre.
Now that I consider the matter, how am I going to wear a corset? My stomach is too round for that. My waist isn't as thin as before.
And I don't want to mistreat my child with useless, uncomfortable clothes.
When Alexander opens his eyes and releases me from his clutch, I dress up with slow movements. The worst part is putting on socks.
