I had pretended to be sleeping when Axel called me. He could probably tell I wasn't sleeping, and so he only called me twice before giving up and leaving the room. I plopped over onto my back the moment the door closed and sighed with relief. I was finally alone.
Immediately after eating dinner (proper food might I add, and not just scraps like Axel had been feeding me), I climbed into bed. Axel had given me the bed to myself while he slept on the couch in the room. Maybe there is a working heart inside his chest after all.
I had expected him to tell me to sleep on the floor.
No matter how comfortable the bed was, the hours ticked by, and I still couldn't drift off to sleep. I was too anxious and too scared of what was going to happen when the sun rose again.
Olcan, that's the na
