Chapter 62: Fireworks

Selma Payne's POV:

As usual, a grand fireworks show would be held on the night of the Moonlight Festival.

The girls went to look for their family, while Aldrich and I found a quiet and uninhabited hillside to wait for the fireworks.

"Are you happy tonight?" He draped his coat over my shoulders." If there's anything bad about the Moonlight Festival, it's everyone's wearing too little in the snow. Every year, the number of patients having hypothermia in the hospital increases on the second day of the Moonlight Festival."

I stroked the soft fine fur of the wool coat and smiled. "Is this the reason why you chose the Shepherd? This thick and warm coat?"

We laughed out loud.

When I was with Aldrich, I always seemed to smile unconsciously. It was silly, yes. But somehow, I had willingly fallen into this sweetness.

We cuddled.
