When I come back to my senses, I'm lying in my bed.
(He bit me again...)
I'm still half-conscious and I can't think of anything.

When I close my half-opened eyes again, white fogs start to spread in my head.
(I remember this...)
Arm is lying on the ground and a woman is talking to the man.
(The kiss scene I saw a little while ago...)
I could only see the scene from a distance, but it is a bit closer this time.
(Alfred...)

Alfred is lying unconscious on the ground and doesn't look lively.
My cheeks bedewed with tears, I call his name to wake him up.
Responding to my desperate call, Alfred opens his eyes.
I can't hear the words they exchanged.
Just when Alfred and my lips met, my vision turns into darkness.
I slowly open my eyes.

I raised myself up after making sure my head wasn't spinning anymore.
(I'm so tired now from many things happening all at once... But I don't feel like going back to bed...)
(Maybe I should take a walk inside the castle for a change...)

It's been three days already since I arrived here and it's about time that I went looking for the Rose Garden.
I opened the door without making any noise and walked out to the hallway.

(Where is the Rose Garden...?)
I have only one clue right now.
