章 110: Chapter 109 - Beneath the Surface

Gamama left the kitchen when she was done. She settled down while the cookies baked.

When Risa got into her room, she saw Ike shivering on the bed and she was reminded of his sickness. She went to the herbs that Sunain had administered and fed them to him in appropriate proportions. His shivering stopped and she laid him back gently on the bed. She would be really lucky if she would be able to sleep tonight.

Ike had been sick for three days and it wasn't getting any better. She was scared that she would lose him.

Weakness and fatigue shook her to the very core, she knew she needed someone by her side. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she sang Ike a lullaby while her mind drifted back to the time she met his father and all those sinful nights they spent together.
