Daryl was bed being fed by Paula on the reclining bed. Although her face was still pale, she looked much better than before. When she saw Lucia and August, she said apologetically, "Paula said you guys just got back from Sonirie. Why didn't you go home and get some rest first?"

"Nothing is more important than you waking up," Lucia said with a smile as she put the flowers in the vase. She looked around and asked curiously, "Why isn't Paul here?"

Paul winked at Lucia to remind her not to mention it. Then she excused herself to go to the bathroom and pulled Lucia out into the hallway.
