Frowning, Xanthea examined him closely. Not only was his voice raspy, but his lips were pale, and there was a lack of vitality in his eyes. He looked even more wom out than he had the day before.

“Have you taken any medicine, and d didn’t it help?” she hurried inside and expertly grabbed a thermometer. “Or did you have another bad – night?”

‘I slept well”

It seemed that he had never slept so deeply, soundly, as well as dreamlessly.

“And how do you feel now?”

“Good”

A few minutes later, Xanthea glared at the thermometer, which read 103.5°F. “This is your good? Didn’t you follow my instructions to take your medicina?”

“I did‘

“You swear!”

“I swear”
