Lyca sat next to Shen Qui's bed, exhausted and drained.
She felt dizzy, she felt like sleeping. But she chose not to. She couldn't just sleep without making sure that he would be fine. Lyca held Shen Qui's hands and sighed. Soon, she leaned her head on the headboard, closing her eyes.
She forced the sleepiness out of her head, but she couldn't help it. She really had no energy to stay awake.
….
Shen Qui's kiss stirred her awake. She jolted up and relaxed when she realized she was lying next to him. "How come you didn't wake me up?"
"It's nighttime… why would I wake you up?"
"Oh…" She turned towards him and realized that she was already wearing her underwear. He must have removed her dress before tucking her to bed. "You… who made these breakfast?" she asked him.
"Of course it is me," Shen Qui said. "You didn't think I would know how to cook bacon and eggs?"
