As promised, Ovior brought his documents to the bedroom. He dropped the papers on the table and sat on the chair. Then, he turned around and smiled at Dorothy who was peeking at him from the bed. "You can go to sleep now," he said.
"All right. Goodnight, Ovior," she said.
"Goodnight, Dorothy."
The night was quiet. Her breathing was soft and even. She managed to sleep despite Ovior having the magic light on. It wasn't that the entire room was lit up. It was only the table lamp that was lit up so that he could read the papers.
After midnight, he finished his work. He dropped his glasses and pinched in between his eyebrows.
'It was tiring, but I'm glad I finished the remaining work. I can keep my schedule empty for tomorrow. If Dorothy wants, I will take her to see her family. I should also prepare some gifts for them. If I propose to have her hand in marriage, I won't be refused this time. What should I take for them?'
