Eric was leaving at seven in the evening. At six, the three witches accompanied him to the wooden bridge.
“Thank you for everything,” he said.
“Will we see you again?” Medea asked.
“By all means.” Eric took Cassandra and Medea into his arms. “Thank you for the wonderful time, girls. I’m sure we shall meet again.”
“Come back soon,” they said, and left the bridge.
Eric was searching for the right words to tell Electra, but nothing comforting came to mind.
“Will you write to me?” she asked him.
“Every day. And if I run out of ink, we shall use letters like the ordinary people do.”
Electra chuckled, but her eyes were full of tears.
“I will come back. I promise.”
She wrapped her arms around his neck. “I will wait for you,” she whispered, hugging him tightly.
“I know,” he said, pressing her to his chest.
