In the morning, when Nishi woke up, she saw that no one was beside her. She sat up and called out softly, "Neel."
Neel came into the room with food in his hands, smiling softly, and said, "I went to make food."
"What? What if my mom sees that someone has made food?"
"You don't need to worry. I've kept everything just as it was. I know magic. These things are nothing to me. I can do everything."
"Can you take me flying in the sky?"
"Yes."
"Can I touch the clouds?"
"Yes."
"Can you show me the ocean?"
"Yes."
"And the desert?"
"Yes."
"Can you show me mountains, rivers, waterfalls?"
"Yes, I can do everything for you. You just tell me where you want to go, and I'll take you there. But right now, you need to have breakfast."
Neel picked Nishi up and took her to the washroom. Both of them were brushing together. Nishi was looking at Neel in the mirror and smiling sweetly. Seeing Nishi smile, Neel quickly washed his face, then helped Nishi brush and wash her face, and picked her up in his arms again. Nishi was staring at Neel intently. Coming to the room, Neel fed Nishi with his own hands...
Nishi said to herself mentally, "Even though you're a stranger, it feels like you're someone very close to me."
