Capítulo 67: The First Mission

"Why not just stay the night?"

He asked, gesturing to the doorways of one of the many rooms. Her blush only deepened at his words and her fists clenched.

"Ah, no. Not like that. I mean just borrow one of the rooms and try to sleep a little while the rain dies down."

He quickly moved to clear up her misunderstanding.

"…Where will you be sleeping?"

"I think I'll stay down here a little longer. You go ahead and choose a room – it doesn't matter which. I won't disturb you, so rest assured."

She bit her lip wondering whether this really was the right course of action. What would people think if they saw her coming out of his house early in the morning… of course, they'd think 'that'. She felt embarrassed just contemplating it. But still, it would be ridiculous to charge through the rain only to be completely soaked.

"Fine… I'll go ahead and try and sleep a little then."
