It really wasn't her fault. She wasn't sick! Anymore. That much.
She was just tired. From the long walk to the garden. And from how relaxing it was to just sit in the garden with Darrach without any concerns or worries!
And yet the young man was looking at her with an entirely unnecessary judgmental frown.
Which - she might point out if she were less embarrassed about missing what he was saying again - was not exactly very respectful to do with the princess of Sidera.
Not that such things really seemed to matter to anyone in the palace.
He would hardly be the first person not to even consider giving her any kind of respectful deference. Making a fit about it would probably only make that worse.
So instead she just...
Sighed.
And looked up at him.
For his part, he looked...
A bit baffled. As if he were confused why she was looking at him like he was the prblem when she was the one who kept fading out and missing what he was saying.
That.
