Despite the worst being over, she was far from feeling at ease. There was still a soft searing ache in her chest, even though she had been given ample painkillers. Regardless, she was fortunate to feel anything. Such a strong and potent spell could have done a lot more damage.
Of course there was a lot of internal damage as well. Juliet had truly hoped it could have ended differently, but no. It wasn't meant to be. The guilt might not have been as heavy as before, but it was still there. She couldn't change anything. No one deserved such an end. Even if it was Monatgue.
The girl wasn't allowed to dwell on the matter for long though. The sound of her name, not to mention the voice that called it, was enough to force her to turn her attention to the doorway. Even though she was still aching, Juliet grit her teeth, forcing her body to move. Sadly she was still weak, so failed in her attempt at sitting up, and was quickly scolded by the mediwizard for it.
"R-Romeo..." she gasped, eyes welling up in relief and sadness from all that transpired. Desperate, she stretched out her arm. It was pointless, but she didn't care. She just needed to do it, needed to reach and make sure he was there, needed him. Just needed him.
