Morwenna sighed in resignation. There was nothing she could do but let him be.

Norbert's condition seemed less stable than she had hoped. He had visibly lost weight recently, and his appetite had dwindled despite an increase in his medication. Morwenna had spoken to the doctor, who had assured her that it was just the progression of a chronic condition and that resting was the best course of action.

Yet, Morwenna couldn't shake her fear of something dire happening to Norbert. She often thought that more frequent check-ups would ease her worries.

Seeing her anxious expression, Norbert, with a gentle smile, said, "Oh, don't fret, my dear. I'm fine, really. By the way, how are things going with Stuart? Did you two... stay together last night?"
