The next time I woke up was after the outside of the window had completely darkened.
I woke to the sensation of my cheek being stroked with a different touch from Nimi or Elysia.
In the dark room, someone sitting on the bed noticed I had woken up and smiled wryly; I could tell from the atmosphere.
A faint, refreshing, and pleasant mint scent drifted over. In the darkness I turned toward the direction of someone's face and smiled as I spoke.
"Good morning. So you came too, Felica."
"Good morning, Raide. Of course I came. Is your body all right?"
"Thanks to being made to sleep for a whole day, I feel refreshed."
"I see. That's good, then."
Felica breathed a sigh of relief, told me she was going to turn on the light, and then lit it for me.
Because it had been pitch black, I narrowed my eyes against the brightness.
Gradually my eyes adjusted to the light, and I saw Felica's face smiling as she looked at me.
I sat up, stretched, and slowly twisted my upper body left and right.
