His face softened into a gentle shade of pink as he recalled those intimate moments.
"Lotus... I miss her too, more than I can really put into words right now," Benjamin sighed deeply, his shoulders slumping slightly as the name left his lips, carrying a weight of genuine longing and affection in his tired voice.
He continued; "Did you experience any trouble or any major changes while I was gone for all those days? Did a new monster appear somewhere in the area? Was a new location discovered?"
"Ah, yes! Now that you mention it, there is something I forgot to tell you about!" Martha sat up straight from her previous position of squeezing and hugging Benjamin's torso tightly against her own body, her face lighting up with sudden remembrance and her eyes widening with excitement.
