Chapter 69 The Sweet And The Sour

• GERALD
• I stirred from my deep slumber and opened my eyes slowly, to the clearing figure of Rosaline perched next to me. It was a delight to see her, to be holding her and not shoved six feet in a ditch somewhere.
• It was evening already, and I could feel the exhaust weigh on my bones. I'd slept for way too long but as they said, that was exactly what I needed for a speedy recovery, even though it didn't feel like it. With her arms as pillows, Rosaline had dozed off and I didn't know if it was worth it disturbing her with how much I missed her.
