Dinner.

Shikera wiped her face with the face towel and sneezed into it, before discarding the fabric on her bed. Staring at the door to make sure she locked it, she picked up the slacks and white shirt she had earlier placed on the bed and slipped into them one by one.

When she was done, she looked in the mirror and noticing the slightly awkward raise in her chest, she removed the shirt and wore a bra before wearing the shirt back.

After she was satisfied with her look, she tied her hair up and walked out of her room. It was almost time for dinner so she didn't bother going to Ethan's room to greet him.

At the table, the normal gloomy air which normally hung in the air was nowhere to be found and Shikera didn't feel suffocated. She sat beside Raine like she always did, and this time around, Esther was sitting on her other side and not beside Ethan who was sitting opposite her.
