112 Together

Pride was the only thing keeping Azel standing but as he stared into the distance, the weight of his overwhelming stupidity came crashing down on him.

'No, no, no, what have I done?!' He could have ripped his hair off with the way he was pulling at it.

He had completely forgotten to take off the ring last night when he came back from the capital and to think he had approached Adelia without checking himself over.

Azel's head spinned; basically, what happened last night never existed in Adelia's memory.

…They had reconciled over their earlier misunderstanding, he had teased her to his heart's content, he had done his best to impress her with his skills in the kitchen and they had even planned for this outing as well…

All that for nothing.

Azel let out a humorless laugh. Probably, if she had opened the message he had written for her this morning, she must've wondered who it was that had sent her such a thing.
