Sighing, Lucien turned to Zephyr.
"Something came up, so I have to leave. I will be back soon, and then I will help you."
Zephyr hummed, a touch of reluctance in his voice, but he knew Lucien had his job.
"You go do what you need to. Don't worry about me; I can manage on my own. What you have done is more than enough. Thank you—today was a memorable day for me."
Lucien felt weird at his last words.
What was so memorable today?
Probably the fact that they spent Erick's money…? He stared at Zephyr oddly for a moment before putting the room key back in his pocket and quickly turning to leave.
Zephyr stood in place until the door of his room closed softly, and he could no longer hear the faint sound of Lucien's footsteps.
Then he closed his eyes.
He wanted to remember every little detail. Today had truly been a special day for him.
