Slight Differences

"I wasn't expecting you to come, Your Highness," Commander Eloria said to Fourth Prince Rayan who came to visit her early in the morning. The two were inside Commander Eloria's tent.

"I am also responsible for your injury," Rayan Varence responded to the Commander who was sitting opposite him. "How is your wound now?"

"It's a lot better now and will be completely healed soon. Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."

"I'm glad to hear that," Rayan Varence remarked with a little smile on his face. However, Eloria could tell that there was something wrong. In her eyes, he looked exhausted and tired as if he was deprived of sleep. 

"How is your hand, Your Highness?" She asked when she noticed his bandaged hand.

The Fourth Prince narrowed his eyes at his hand before he muttered, "It's fine now. I could take off the bandage soon."
