The Empire of Reimia (3)

Miya was in a slightly melancholic mood. She wasn't sure, but she had the feeling that she and Eli hadn't really grown close since their first meeting. "Maybe I just can't compete with her favorite thing, weapons... It would be silly to even try, I'll never be a real friend to her. Well, it's enough that she is important to me. When you have two people you care about, it's more motivating..." Xenomia wanted to go back to her room and rest before the upcoming classes, but the last thought stopped her. "I've been avoiding this for a long time, but it seems that wasn't quite right. I need to write to my brother and ask how he's doing, if everything is okay... It doesn't matter that Mom will read it too, I'll somehow arrange the letter so that it's not scary. I love Alik too much to not communicate with him for so long." To find inspiration, Miya goes to the roof, tearing out leaves from her notebook.
