    Thssa was wrapped up in nkets, stewing in her own frustration. The words Rosalind had said, coupled with the memory of Lysander mentioning how much she resembled Harper three years ago, clogged her heart with irritation. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got.


    So caught up in her own thoughts, she didn''t hear the knocking at first. Lysander stood at the door, knocking a few times without any response, not waiting for Thssa to let him in.

Spotting the legs sticking out, his worry eased.

    His voice, deep and soothing, made Thssa shrink back a little, but also eased her frustration slightly. She was easily softened, especially by Lysander, whom she deeply cared about. His few words were enough to pacify her.


    "Are you really happy, or just saying it?" Thssa asked, looking up at him with big, expectant eyes, still in his embrace. Their closeness allowed them to see every detail on each other''s faces. She scrutinized his eyes, not wanting to miss any subtle emotion.


    "Of course, I''m genuinely happy.
