Bab 1250: Thread (9)

'When I watch her like this, I remember what made me attracted to her. While her appearance contributed to it, the main reason was how passionate she got whenever it came to learning anything.'

Sumire suddenly puts the designs down and walks over to the bed. She pats the spot beside her. "Sleep beside me?"
