[i]'Well, at least nothing of my own little mishaps from last night disturbed the poor boy's night'[/i] Kiel comforts himself with thoughts of Zach sleeping peacefully, glad he didn't have any nightmares as he settles in for breakfast. With a sigh he murmurs, “My night went well enough. No complaints.” Focusing on his meal he watches Zach with interest. [i]'He seems pretty alert this morning. Must be the good night. . .I wonder how bad the nightmares really are for him. . .I know kids like him have it rough. Being plagued, even in their sleep.'[/i]

At the idea of taking Sara outside Kiel brightens up even more. “That sounds wonderful!” He follows Zach's gaze and smiles brightly at the peeking girl. She nods at the question before shuffling out of the room in her over long night shirt, a brush clutched in her fingers. “Good morning Sara!” he says cheerily and she smiles back at him before plopping down in front of the priest, holding the brush over her shoulder. Chuckling Kiel turns, taking the brush and setting to work.

She looks over at Zach, her eyes bright. “Outside?” She crosses her arms over her chest. “Not too far, right?” She blinks her eyes, gazing at him with them opened wide in question and worry. Kiel runs his fingers through her hair comfortingly as he works on removing her tangles, smiling softly.
