Huu... huu...
The sound of steady breathing reached her ears.
Somehow, listening to this sound, the exhaustion that had built up throughout the day gradually began to surface.
She felt her eyelids growing heavy.
She glanced at the time. It was still early.
'Maybe... I'll just close my eyes for a bit?'
The thought had barely formed before her eyes shut completely. A moment later, her head was resting against Lin Chen's.

"Phew~"
"Finally, the repairs are done!"
Andre wiped the sweat from his forehead. Looking at his completely renewed shelter, a huge weight was lifted from his heart.
The morning's storm had been even more ferocious than he'd expected, completely wrecking his shelter and leaving it in a heap.
If he hadn't followed Lin Chen's example and dug a hole into the mountainside for a storage room, he'd probably be done for by now.
Although he'd spent several hours rebuilding the collapsed shelter, he still felt a lingering sense of unease.
