Perpetual Wink

Arthur could hear the sniffs of the woman sitting beside him as the wagon cut through the forest. He didn't know what Commander Barbora said to her, but she had been sobbing nonstop.

Ilios had cars, but most of their usage was inside the cities. If anyone used a car through the wild, he would be attracting all the monsters in the nearby area, possibly causing a monster horde. Therefore, Arthur had to use wagons.

"Take this," said Arthur while giving her a napkin. This was his subtle way of telling her to stop crying, but Little Yin seemed to take the opposite message. She suddenly hugged him and brawled out crying, with her tears soaking his shirt.

"AAAAAAH!"

Arthur sat there with a dead expression as she cried on his shirt, not knowing what to do for her. In the end, he pushed his hand over her forehead, pushing her head away.
