Neither Xuan Yu nor I slept much after that. Even after the sun rose, neither of us moved from the bed, too awkward to do anything. I think both of us tried to pretend to be asleep so the other wouldn't notice the awkward tension in the air, but really, both of us failed miserably.
In the end, I gave up, and decided to just get up. Morning was here, and I had things to do. Xuan Yu waited after I headed for the shower before getting up herself, since talking with me was going to be awkward.
I had wanted to take a break after all that stuff with the Chaos Realm and whatnot since really, I deserved one, but unfortunately I just can't catch any rest these days. It's not like I blamed Sylvoir, though—this was a matter of whether the world was going to be destroyed or not. I had to contribute.
But even so… man, this kind of sucked.
