Aurora still can't believe what happened to her.
As Alex held her, the frustration she couldn't express about his rebirth welled up.
Unbeknownst to her, tears began to form at the corners of her eyes.
But now, after expressing her sadness, she felt embarrassed to cry in his arms.
She struggled to find the right words to explain her emotions as if her speaking ability had abruptly faded. She pulled away from him, lowering her head to conceal her face.
Aurora felt uncertain about how she looked now, but she could assume she must appear miserable.
"Are you feeling better?"
Upon hearing Alex's calm voice, she nodded.
"Would you like to have dinner now? It's nearly eight," Alex said again.
However, no words could escape her lips; she merely nodded in response to him.
"Alright, let's go!" he took her hand and gently pulled her up.
Aurora was shocked but didn't refuse him; she followed him to the dining room.
