Kapitel 1972: Private Conversation

Rain took a sip of coffee, hiding her face behind the tin cup. 

She had heard it too!

After all, the humming had come from her own shadow. 

'What is this fool doing?!'

Feeling pins and needles, she gulped down the scalding coffee and forced out a smile. 

"Well, anyway. I'll go take a walk… I mean, visit the baths. Thank you kindly, Fleur, the coffee was delicious."

She had to get away from her companions as quickly as possible, in case her teacher was planning to start whistling or actually break into a song. 

Rain was truly flabbergasted. He had always been flawlessly cautious when around other people… what could have made him commit such a ridiculous mistake?

Putting the cup down, she stood up, stretched one more time, and headed away from their small cluster of tents. 

"Wait, Rani! Aren't you going to eat breakfast?"

Rain waved a hand and answered Tamar in a carefree tone:

"Later! I'm not very hungry."
