When the night deepened, Mona came to Adelina, who was sitting at the table, and brought a wash basin full of warm water.
"Please give me your feet."
"You don't have to do that anymore."
"You went hunting and overworked yourself again. Please give them to me."
Helpless against Mona's insistence, Adelina lifted her skirts. Mona carefully sprinkled warm water on Adelina's feet and began to massage them. Adelina let out a satisfied sigh.
Every night before they went to sleep, Mona washed and massaged her feet. Although Adelina told her she didn't need to do it anymore, Mona continued to wash her feet without fail every single night.
"Please don't overwork yourself."
"I didn't overwork myself today."
