Bab 118: ~Childlike~

~In Sai’s Room~

Sai sat down on the ground and rested her back on the wall, waiting patiently for the stranger to wake up. She stayed as far as possible with her body covered with the bed cover meant to cover the stranger. Close to the stranger was a small bowl with fruits in it.

After waiting hours, the stranger finally woke up. The stranger looked around before sitting up on the bed, curling up his body and resting on the wall. He looked towards Sai and stared for a while before looking away.

‘Does he know I’m here?’ Sai thought.

After looking round the room again, the stranger stared at the bowl close to him and then stared in Sai’s direction again. He didn’t look away this time and kept staring.

Several minutes passed, and he still didn’t look away. Sai realized he knew. She raised the cover from her body. Immediately, the stranger hid his face in his knees. Sai frowned and covered herself back. After a short while, the stranger raised his face and looked at her.
