Shadow of Despair

All he wanted now was to go home and collapse into bed.

As he turned on his heel to leave, his thoughts wandered.

Oh yeah, Vaan said he was going to propose to my sister tonight.

Did it go well?

He was only a few steps from the exit when an astonished voice called out from the entrance.

"Georgio?"

Georgio's head shot up at the sound of the voice.

Standing there was his sister.

"What are you doing out here at this hour?" she asked.

"What about you? Weren't you supposed to be on a date with Vaan tonight?" Georgio replied.

His sister, with her red hair tied up high, blinked in surprise as she stepped into the shed.

Normally, she would be wearing an apron, but tonight she was dressed in a floral dress made of what appeared to be fine fabric.

Georgio tilted his head and asked if she'd accepted Vaan's proposal.

Her cheeks flushed faintly as she gave him a small nod.
