Alexander stood and reached for her fridge, pulling out a beer...
"No." Ella caught his wrist without thinking. "You're injured." She reminded him as she took the beer from his hand.
"It's fine, I can..."
"It's not," Ella cut in firmly. She instead have him a bottle of ice-cold water. "You need to be alive and healthy if you plan on avenging your mother."
He stared at her, then smiled. "Point taken."
"So," she said, sitting back down, "is this bitch in Country R?" Ella asked.
Alexander chuckled, he liked that she referred to as as a bitch. "I believe so. I have taken someone who might know something into custody," he told her.
"Great!, that will definitely help us out right." Ella says excitedly while Alexander stared at her, his breathing labored. 'She said us.' He thought.
"Babe, thank you." He told her.
"What for? Its not like I can do anything to help." Ella looked down. She really wished she could help somehow, she wants to desperately ease his sadness someway.
