Chapitre 142: Eventful life

"I somehow always count on you Sam," I responded with a smile and his grin widened on his face and back straightened as if he was proud about that fact.

I truly could count on Sam with matters like these. Even during my injuries, I was able to tell Sam comfortably that I was already healed and would be pretending, which he wholeheartedly supported. I would have been doubtful of him if he had ever acted against it, but he rather went out of his way to remind me of it when I had forgotten to act it out. It almost made me cry remembering how worst it was back at the castle when Dandeline was busy and I was left to my ownself. 

Sam leaned ahead and pulled in a hug without warning. He must have seen the tears that I was trying to drink back. "You know you can always count on me and even others. That is what friends are for. Don't worry, I won't tell your secret to be known even in my dying breaths."
