Chapter 19: She Kisses Him

After Maisy heated her meal, she began to eat. Although the food was supposed to be tasty, it felt like she was chewing on tasteless wax.

She forced herself to finish every bite of her meal so that her stomach would feel full and headed to the living room. She turned the TV on, and the finance channel came up. Surprisingly, she saw Jay being interviewed on the screen.

Maisy kept staring at the screen, completely lost in thought to the point where she didn't notice the program had concluded. She slowly leaned her head back and rested it on the couch, looking at the ceiling while her imagination ran wild.

When Jay got home, he noticed that Maisy was still staring blankly at the ceiling.

It was as if things had gotten boring for her. She got up and was about to look for something to pass her time with, only to realize that there was no housework for her to do.

It was only then that she realized that Jay had returned.
