He crouched in front of her and saw that she had a deep, troubled frown on her forehead. He caressed her head and her frown eventually smoothened.

“Why do you keep having nightmares?” He asked in a voice that was barely a whisper.

He kissed her forehead and rested against his head on hers gently.

Three days passed by and Lillian never left the room. Shadow slept in the spare room and gave her space, but what bothered him more was that she wasn’t eating at all. He put food in front of her, but she never touched it.
