All day I felt restless and as I entered my room, I flopped on the bed. There were still lingering thoughts in my mind. I trusted Arashi but I was still baffled about his grandparents.

No matter how hard I tried, the empress wasn't impressed. Arashi was teaching me everything yet it wasn't enough and I felt tired. My whole body was exhausted but my mind still replayed the name Akio said.

Yukina...

Arashi had never told me about her. Did he use to love her...?

My heart clenched as I buried my face. It hurt even when I knew it was childish. She wasn't here or I had never seen her. I had never heard her name from anyone. I knew whoever she was, she wasn't around here but there was still a lingering feeling in me which wouldn't let me rest.
