Alex winced a little as she felt Rika touch her back, her lips pressing together tightly as she could feel her back throb a bit. [color=red]"It's really nothing Lady Rika... I just acted out... it doesn't sting that much anymore."[/color] the red head insisted, sighing a little in relief as she felt the salve cover her back. Easing the stinging pain. Eyes widening curiously as she watched Rika take out a wooden case, removing a sword and placed it on the table. The red couldn't help but look at it in awe, gingerly taking it and examining it closely. It was a bit heavier, yet it felt nice.

Naisha then came in, greeting the orphan happily as she was pushed closer by Lulu, but soon had a similar reaction of Rika when she noticed all the medicine around. Watching as Rika said a bit reassuring words, unwilling to cover it, before leaving. Alex sighed a little as her friend berated her with quite a bit of fury. [color=red]"Really. I'm fine. Nothing I couldn't handle. Your mom already flipped her lid after seeing me like this. Don't need to have to try and calm down another one."[/color] Alex chuckled, trying to ease up the tension as she lightly bumped her hand against her friend's shoulder.
