When Aries woke up the next day, she smiled bitterly as she caressed the empty spot on her side. Not the first morning without Abel, but it felt like it was.
It was almost unbelievable.
"Not long ago, I'm relieved whenever I wake up without him," she muttered, sighing as she settled her hand on the creases on the sheet. She could still feel the faint warmth he left and his distinct scent on the white sheet and on her body.
Aries smiled, knowing those were the piece of evidence that Abel was with her last night. "I'm not as upset as I thought I would be," she mumbled, moving closer to the space he laid down last night while clutching the blanket.
How Abel snuck in and out didn't matter to her. The man was Abel; he could do anything if he wanted to. Trespassing on a person's personal space or property was a piece of cake for him. All she had in mind was that she could get by in this place, slowly but surely.
