Considering Pierre’s aggressive attitude and powerful voice, Selena didn’t think he looked like someone who had gone on without food for more than ten hours, nor did he seem to be a patient who had just undergone an operation. He is a living proof of the marked difference between monsters and humans.
Then, Selena stood to leave, but when she arrived at the door, she recalled the nurse’s instruction that Pierre shouldn’t be eating before passing gas. Now that he needed food, she figured she could no longer avoid the question.
“Selena, what business do you have while dallying at the door?”
Hesitantly, she got back into the ward. “Well, I do have something that I have to settle.”
“What else could possibly be more important than my meal? Quickly! I am famished! I need some food right away!” He began throwing a hissy fit, so perhaps he was starving indeed.
“You can’t eat yet.”
“Why not?” Pierre stared at her with wide eyes.
“There’s… There’s still one very important question.”
“What is it? Ask away! Is it somehow illegal for me to eat?” There was genuine confusion in his gaze while he looked at her.
“Of course it’s not illegal, but…” Selena was sweating anxiously. How should I even phrase this?
“Selena Yard, what’s up with you? Spill it out!”
Upon hearing that, Selena sat down solemnly. “This is a serious matter that I was told to ask by the nurse, but it might sound a little awkward.”
“Speak!”
