In the end, he still cared for her. He delicately extracted the bag of chips from her hand, afraid that the crinkling sound of the packaging would wake her. So he did it gently, very gently.
He bent down, hugged her back and legs, and carried her upstairs. Seeing how neat and tidy the bed was, he figured that she hadn't been back in the bedroom at all.
Was she waiting for him to come home?
Although her actions stirred a sense of pity in him, it also warmed his heart, and his affection for her grew stronger.
Then, he carefully set her down in the center of the bed, turned on the air conditioning, and adjusted to a comfortable temperature.
After tucking her in, he glanced at his Patek Philippe watch—it was already past midnight.
Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the night was silent. How endearing it was to have a petite figure waiting for him to come home on the sofa at this late hour.
