Hunting Time

"Ugh..." Ves groaned as she finally regained consciousness.

Her eyes fluttered open to Leo and everyone standing around her with a smile of relief on their faces.

"Hey," she smiled, and tried to push herself up, but was hit by a brief splitting headache, forcing her to hold her head as she collapsed back to the floor.

"Don't stress yourself too much, Ms Ves," Leo said, with a worried expression on her face.

"Yes, Ms Ves. Just lay down and rest. You don't have to move," Mia added, and Miguel also nodded in agreement.

Ves couldn't help but smile at their words. She could sense the worry in their voices and she felt warm inside. It felt good to have people caring and worrying about her.

"Please, help me sit up," she said, and Mia quickly rushed towards her, pushing Leo who was kneeling beside her away.
