Capítulo 278: Link, The Menace... Part-1.

Waiting area: infirmary.

Rio slowly sat up, opened his eyes, and noticed Lia dozing off on a chair with her head resting on his bed.

He sighed as he looked at his hand, which Lia was holding firmly.

'Now I feel guilty for making her stay beside me… ugh...'

As if sensing Rio's movements, Lia opened her eyes sluggishly and rubbed them a bit.

*yaaawwwnnn~*

She stretched out her hand and yawned.

"You are finally awake… You really sleep a lot; even I ended up falling asleep after seeing your sleeping face…"

Lia seemed to be dodging Rio's eyes, as if she were trying to hide something.

(She was actually staring at Rio's face all along and only pretended to sleep after she noticed that he was about to wake up…)

Rio was unconscious, so he didn't notice anything, and even if he had, he wouldn't blow Lia's cover, as he doesn't want to make her angry.
