Sheifa was brooding. Everything that had happened in the past month had worn her out, from finding out that Selphie was gone to discovering that she had some sort of evil personality lurking somewhere inside her head. She didn't throw a fit like all the others at losing someone she held dear, however; she'd learned from what she'd seen previously that it wasn't a good idea to do so, no matter how upset she was. So instead of lashing out, she took it all in, becoming really quiet and spending almost her entire day in her room. She hadn't even moved back to Albel's room, not ready to deal with that just yet, although there were nights when she'd wake up crying and he'd move over to hold her just so she could actually get some sleep. It was a terrible ordeal, but they were getting through it.

She watched him come inside her room, suddenly curious. "You seem happy," she observed, turning away from the window to face him.

He walked over to touch her arm. "Come on, I've got a surprise for you."

[sheifa]

"Really?" She had to smile. "I like surprises."

Albel grinned back at her. "Well, then, you'll love this."
