He put down his fork and gave her a thoughtful look

“You know, from Nudushan, you can fly to just about any location in Europe, Asia, or Africa in a matter of a few hours”

“And have you visited all of them?” She wrinkled her nose at him, like she already knew the answer

“You don’t have to hover, you know I’ll be fine on s you need to take care of,” she said

“Are you sure?” he asked, and she nodded

“Honestly, I know I slept on the plane, but I think the last few days are catching up with ht just take a nap”
