Returning home, the first thing Kyle wanted wasn't food. He was hungry, that was true, but more than anything, he wanted a bath.
After the battle, he was covered in sweat, and nothing eased away fatigue better than a warm shower.
Honestly, staying at the hospital had drained him far more than the battle itself.
Taking off his clothes one by one, he tossed them in the basket before entering the bathroom.
"Haa..." Standing beneath the shower, he let out a sigh of contentment.
Warm water streamed over his body, washing away the dirt and exhaustion.
It felt nice to have warm water always prepared rather than waiting for it like at his old place.
Resting a hand against the wall, he lowered his head.
The day had been chaotic, but what lingered in his mind the most were the choices he had made during the battle and the greed that had driven him to act the way he did.
