A Daughter's Concerns

-----

As Elayne slept, Mark walked towards the living room and sat down there, drinking some tea. He felt slightly nervous of being inside of Elayne's home for so long now, and that he was given the authority of using anything inside, even cooking and all. However, his nervousness was beaten by his concern for her health.

Suddenly catching a fever from one day to another wasn't something normal. Mark wanted to bring Elayne to a doctor if things were to get too bad, but he also wanted to know more about what she had been doing in her daily life that might indicate her current state of health. Therefore, against his concerns, he tried to ask her daughter.

"Elena, has your mother been alright this last week? You're her daughter so I was wondering if you've seen her slightly sick, more tired, or something else." Said Mark, as he interrupted Elena who was about to finish her meal.
