The next day... Athena woke up late on the bed. It was a very long night but, Athena still felt tired. When she opened her eyes reluctantly, and she saw Azrael packing their bags, and she quickly sat up.
"Are we going somewhere?" she asked.
He smiled. "Good morning… we're going back to the country."
Athena's eyes widened. "Really?"
He nodded with a small smile, even though it was clear he didn't fully want to go. She jumped off the bed and ran to him, hugging him tightly.
His smile widened, and he hugged her back just as tightly.
"Thank you… I don't know what I'd do without you."
He kissed the top of her head and said, "Go take your bath quickly."
Excited, Athena hurried into the bathroom, a spring in her step.
On the other hand, Eryx sat on the desk in an empty classroom, staring out the window.
