"It's okay, it's okay, it will be fine soon..."
"Chirp chirp..."
"Be careful!"
In the moment that Juna lowered her head, Valentina, sitting beside her in a wheelchair, noticed a chunk of stone falling from above and hastily opened her mouth to warn her. But Juna's reaction was not quick enough; even upon hearing the warning, she foolishly looked up, and by the time she fully understood what was happening, the falling stone was already within an inch of her.
Fortunately, Philis was nearby. With quick eyes and swift hands, she pulled Juna and the wooden basket in her hands back to her side, just as the massive rock slammed into the ground, bursting into many fragments. Valentina was too slow to dodge, and as she raised her hand to protect her face, it was grazed by a stone. The delicate skin on her hand immediately exuded strands of fresh blood, causing her to inhale sharply in pain.
"Hiss..."
"Boss, are you okay?"
