194 My sister is nameless

The next day, Scarlet and Esong finally saw each other again after many days of departing. He called her as soon as she opened her eyes, as if he was watching her from somewhere. 

"Good morning, sleepy head." he said, "Am I allowed to say that you make such a beautiful sight." 

She was pretty sure that she had bed hair and dark circles under her eyes but he looked no different from her. It looked like he was barely getting any sleep, he had dark circles and she had caught him trying to hold back a yawn twice. 

"Are you getting any rest?" she asked him. 

"Here and there." he replied. "Mostly not, this is not necessary the most sleep appropriate time of the year." 

She frowned, thinking to herself that what he was saying did not sound very healthy. 

"Don't worry," he added, "mecha warriors can go a maximum of four days with no sleep. We are trained to be this way, it's just that I have a lot of things to deal with. How have you been?"
