Reiner - While She was Sleeping

For the first time, I felt useful, and I was doing some real work. On top of that, if I can help Reiner figure this out, we would be saving lives. Just like he had said when I first asked him what he was working on. He was right, we would be saving lives.

I felt dead tired when I got into the car and Reiner started driving us home. Despite my exhaustion, I felt very satisfied with how the day had progressed. If only tomorrow would be like this as well, then life wouldn’t feel so hard. I glanced over at Reiner and saw him paying attention to the road ahead. He didn’t seem so tired at all. I hoped that the effort that we’ve put in today will prevent him from spending late nights working alone at the office.

“See, I can be pretty helpful, right? I’m not completely useless…” I spoke up cheerfully.
