Something to Think About.

"Ethan" a voice entered Ethan's left ear calling out to him and leaving from his right. 

"Ethan!" The voice called out again but in vain as Ethan was In a state of solitariness. 

Earlene, who had also freed herself from the crowd surrounding her, had moved aside to the corner, leaving her father and the other nobles behind. 

Coincidentally, she had also chosen the same corner at the window side where Ethan was standing, looking outside at the brightly lit city blanketed by the luminous luster of the half-moon. 

Although his face was stoic, as someone who had spent a lot of time with him in recent years, Earlene guessed that he seemed to be in deep melancholy. And so she called out to him. 

"Ethan!" 

Earlene called out again as she gently tugged at Ethan's shoulder waking him out of his reverie. 

"Oh… It's you." Ethan muttered nonchalantly as he looked at Earlene.
