Nervous Wreck
“Don’t… don’t cry, Mitchell…” my voice is hoarse, huskier than I would prefer. “Please. He is going to be okay. He promised us, right? My liege always keeps his promises. He never swore falsely… he keeps his oaths…”
I am trembling. I should trust in those pills, but I can’t… I want to scream. To sob like a little girl… but I can’t. I’m a knight. I promised to keep these boys from harm… I still cannot smile like I want to.
“Would you please… give me a cup of soup? If he can… still swallow… I’ll try to feed him… maybe… he would… get stronger…”
Stupid idea. Absolutely the worst. I still don’t have anything smarter…
