You couldn't keep still as the seconds dragged by. You paced around your home while your eyes flickered between the clock and the door.

You and Neuvillette barely got to see each other because it was hard for him to make time for travel from Fontaine to Natlan.

So, more often than not, you were visiting him. But even so, he was tied down to Palais Mermonia all day long.

Then came a letter from him that he could finally leave Fontaine for a few days to see you in Natlan. Safe to say, you were excited.

You practically jumped at the door when you heard a soft knock.

You opened the door to reveal a bouquet of colourful flowers that were native to Fontaine. Although it was the only pleasant sight as you looked up to see Neuvillette melting against the doorframe with all the colour drained from his face.
