After finalizing her speech, Morwenna finally noticed Keira was in the room.

Tucking away her speech, Morwenna asked with a puzzled tone, "Keira, don't you have a class tonight? What brought you back so early?"

Caught off-guard, Keira stammered, "I'm feeling a bit under the weather today. I'd hit the hay early."

Usually, Keira spoke to Morwenna in a timid, soft voice. So, Morwenna thought Keira was a bit dizzy and didn't catch the unusual strain in her voice. Showing concern, Morwenna asked, "What's wrong? Do you need to see the campus nurse?"

"No, no, it's just my Aunt Flo. A bit of rest should do the trick."

"Alright then, get some rest. The others haven't come back yet. You might want to pull the curtain around your bed for peace."

"Yeah, sure."

With the curtain drawn, Keira let out a long sigh of relief.
