Colin pushed open the door and stepped out, feeling the meager chill of early autumn as Nasi yawned on his shoulder.
"Want to sleep a bit more?" Colin asked with a smile.

Nasi clutched at Colin's collar, her little face instantly fell.
"Do you think Sister Demi and Renee are doing well?" Colin, looking at the Renee sisters training in the courtyard, changed the subject.
"Yes! They are both so amazing!" Nasi nodded, her gaze shifting to the center of the yard, her attention successfully diverted.
