Rehan sat next to her as he mulled over what she had told him. The mistress would probably have a death wish for Esaha now as well after she saved him. "I'm grateful your father sent you to find me. I can only imagine what it is the mistress would have to done to me, and to you as well if you were caught alone."
"I know what it feels like to lose your parents. I used to live on a farm when I was younger. My mother died a long time ago, and my father probably 5 years ago now from a fire." He placed his hand on her forearm and tried to comfort her for the loss of her father. The two sat like that for a while, watching the sun finish its crawl into the sky and the burst of energy in the garden come alive. Rehan stood up then wincing from his wounds. Extending his hand to her, he offered to help her off the bench. "We should go back inside." A small grin started to play across his features. "That healer will probably have my head for getting out of bed without his permission."
