The Compassion in Need

Felissa stared at Vicenzo while sipping her tea. They were at their room's table to talk.

"Is there something wrong?" Vicenzo asked. He was mind-linked by Felissa to meet her, but when he arrived, all Felissa did was stare at him.

"No," Felissa replied and put down her cup. She felt sick from consuming a lot of tea that day. 

"Do you want to talk?" Vicenzo asked softly. He didn't want to be awkward with his mate, but he started to feel that way.

"Do I need a reason to see you?" Felissa raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms. 

"No, of course not! I'm just asking," Vicenzo replied and chuckled before shifting his eyes somewhere. 

The room became quiet, and voices from outside were heard.

"My parents will arrive tomorrow," Felissa started and took a cookie.
