    <span style="font-weight:400">"Dammit! Where is he?!" Alfia''s eyes turned vicious as she looked around, trying to find someone. And she wasn''t the only one as the others did the same. Yet, there was one ce they all focused on.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Morning, everyone." Keith smiled as he waved his hand in the kitchen. He had a knife in his hand, ready to cook. But that caused Herrick to pick him up.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hey! Do you guys have to do this?!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Sheesh! How many times did we have to tell you! Go and rest! We''ll make breakfast!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I said I was fine! And I need to do something after getting cooped up in the hospital! Just let me do some cooking!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"No!" "Come on!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"It''s only a bit!" Keith grabbed the kitchen''s door frame, not wanting to leave.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Why is he so strong?!" "Someone rip his fingers off now!" Like that, Alfia and Faelyn ungripped him from the door.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Guys! Do you really have to treat me like this?!" Keith cried as he felt everyone pulling him away. He was a little surprised since everyone was working together! But to get together like this to deal with him was messed up!


    <span style="font-weight:400">Herrick and Melor ced him on a chair,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Of course! You just need to sit there and act cute! You don''t need to do anything else, got that!" Jack pointed his fingers at him. Keith sighed, "Sheesh! You guys don''t have to be so mean."


    <span style="font-weight:400">They were all treating him like an injured patient. But he wasn''t that injured! He could still do the usual things. One arm was enough, but they wouldn''t have any of that.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Master Fira!" "Mir! You guys are on duty."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Understood!" "Po!" To make sure Keith stayed put, Fira and Mir were used as guards.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Come on. Do you have to ask them as well?!" This was cheating! How could he say no in front of them?


    <span style="font-weight:400">"That''s the point." Alfia scoffed as they returned to the kitchen. A pout appeared on the man''s face.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hoo," Aria flew on top of the table as well.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"...Fine. I will take a break." Keith couldn''t say no to Aria. The owl had bandages across her wings. She couldn''t move freely. But it was nothingpared to a few days before; she couldn''t fly. She needed more time to recover.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Like that, the four sat in the kitchen, ying with the snowball. Keith''s soul was being soothed by this snowball. As he did,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You got kicked out of there?" Cadmus chuckled as he sipped on his tea.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"...Yes."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Tsk tsk, all of them are such worriers."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You can''t be so nonchnt with this." Sohma shook his head. But then he turned to Keith, "Keith, don''t let his cool facade deceive you. He was worried sick that something happened to you."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hey! I was not! And besides, Diana was summoned, so there''s nothing to worry about!" Aria was already a giant assurance. But with Diana, that assurance sky-rocketed.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Cadmus stared at the woman, "And yet Keith and Aria returned with a bruised body."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Tch!" Keith and the others scooted away from Diana.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"We survived."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"And Keith came back with injuries. You should retire as a great spirit."


    <span style="font-weight:400">Grrr!


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith and Sohma made a business decision to avoid getting involved. Not unless they wanted a cmity on their hands. Nephele blinked. This was the first time she saw Diana so frustrated.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Breakfast is ready!" Alfia and the others brought in the dishes. They blinked their eyes and noticed the odd atmosphere.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Did something happen?" "Nothing happened." Keith shook his head. Like that, everything was ced on the table.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Oh, wait a minute, isn''t this my food?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm." We had saved up.
