Girl from Mitras ★ A. Arlert

Chapter 82 - Happiness loves silence

Y/N woke up early in the morning. She still felt the effects of yesterday - her body was relaxed, she felt refreshed. It was 8 am on the clock, which didn't surprise her. Yesterday, when she got home, she just had a little snack and went to bed. And she slept until morning. Magic feeling.

Y/N lay in bed thinking about the day ahead. At 10 am, she is to meet Sasha and Niccolo in the square next to her apartment block. She was excited because... they wouldn't cook in her kitchen. During the week, she learned that one of her neighbors - her father's former patient, Mr. Bell - was back in town on business, and was again looking for new tenants in his small apartment in the building next door. In the apartment block Y/N lived in, all the apartments were large and, more often than not, quite expensive to rent. The apartment block next door looked exactly like hers, but it had more apartments, and they were all small.

And, confronted by Mr. Bell, Y/N suggested that he meet her friends who have been looking for an apartment for a very long time. She thought it would be nice for her friends and... it would be a great wedding gift. But, everything was a bit difficult - after all, it was an apartment in the central area, next to the palace. She had yet to discuss it with her friends.

After lying in bed for almost an hour, she finally got up. While washing herself, she remembered that Armin would come to her in the evening, and they wanted to talk. She didn't worry about the upcoming conversation, she liked to just talk with Armin, sometimes they could talk for hours, smoothly moving from one topic to another. She was incredibly comfortable with him, but sometimes she saw in him some doubts, fears that he didn't talk about. She didn't try to force it out of him, realizing that everything needs time. And - either he will cope with this, or he will tell - one way or another. She trusted him, and they were at the very beginning of their relationship, but without a doubt - she was happy with him. And I just hoped he was happy too.

After changing clothes, Y/N decided to have breakfast outside the house. She went out into the city, and after buying a cup of coffee and some oatmeal pancakes, she sat down at one of the tables in the street cafe. She had breakfast, watching the people, who were few in the square, since it was Sunday morning - many were still sleeping. Y/N decided to wait for Sasha and Niccolo, and after ordering more coffee for herself, she took a book out of her bag and spent a quiet morning alone.

Around 10 am, Y/N noticed the appearance of her friends on the square - they were standing next to the fountain, looking at the shops located on the square. Y/N put away the book and quickly paid for her food and went to her friends.

- Sasha, Niccolo, good morning! Glad to see you!

- «Hi, Y/N», Sasha said a little lazily. «How do you wake up so early on weekends? I didn't sleep well...»

- «Sasha came early yesterday, and immediately fell asleep», Niccolo said with a smile. «And then she didn't sleep for half the night, because she had a good evenings sleep. And then she fell asleep again in the morning, and in the end - she didn't get enough sleep»

- I also came home and sleep almost immediately yesterday, I always like this after a spa.

- «I'm a little surprised that you invited us to your place», Niccolo said. «I don't mind, don't think anything, just a little unexpected»

- Yes... about that... I'll have to upset you. We're not going to cook at my place today, but... we're going somewhere better.

- «Hey, Y/N, why are you smiling like that? What are you thinking?» Sasha asked, looking at her friend in surprise.

- I want to introduce you to someone, come with me.

Sasha and Niccolo looked at each other, and, trusting their friend, followed her.
