[PRESENT TIME]
"Darling?" Cocking her head to the side, Zoey stared at Matthew Xi who was in a daze.
Upon hearing her voice, Matthew Xi snapped back to reality and raised his brows. "Hmm?"
"What are you thinking? I have never seen you space out before." Zoey said before shoving a spoonful of soup inside her mouth.
"Nothing."
"Are you sure?" Narrowing her eyes, Zoey asked again suspiciously. "What happened last night? Are you sure nothing happened? My body aches as if I wrestled with someone the entire night." She added, touching her stiff shoulders.
Zoey had a habit of drinking at least once a week to unwind. Whether she has company or alone, Zoey used this method to release her stress.
However, Zoey knew her body well. She might normally wake up with a hangover, but her body would always be fine. Was this because of the kind of wine she consumed last night?
So, I'd been thinking about the WYM story pace. Unlike TROTWL that development between Lexi and Ethan was rather quick, (if my readers there are reading this, I love you all!) WYM is a total slow burn romance. Not because I wanted to drag the story but because of Zoey and Matthew Xi's character design. I don't want to rush things because I sometimes end up overlooking some other stuffs.
There might be some of you that was disappointed that Matthew Xi's identity wasn't revealed. However, what can I assure you is when the time comes, it will be a fun and worthy read with a twist. :) I already have concrete ides of the major scene in the future.
