37 The Night After The Confession

Selma Payne’s POV:

Aldrich was stunned and asked me with uncertainty, “Is this a good time? They won’t kick me out, will they?”

I couldn’t help but laugh out loud. No matter how heroic a person was, they would always be timid when meeting their partner’s parents. He might immediately faint from shock if he knew they were my parents.

I waved at him and watched him leave.

When I returned to the palace, I couldn’t control my smile. If he had stayed for dinner, we might have been exposed by now, and my parents would have scared him.

My mother kept saying that I looked very good at the dinner table. Perhaps this was the magic of love. I was like a plant that was well-taken care of and relaxed from the inside out. My life was already complete. All the people I loved were by my side, and I was also moving step by step toward my dream. Who would have thought I would be rejected by someone so coldly just a few months ago?

My parents were talking to each other intimately. The atmosphere between them was so good that no one else could interrupt. This might be the so-called love. I used to scoff at this thing until I met Aldrich.

“Baby, you’re acting weird today. Is there anything you want to share with us?” My mother kept sizing me up.

I responded with a smile. I was thinking about when I should tell them about Aldrich. I needed more professional advice, but not today. I shouldn’t be disturbed by these trivial things. I want to enjoy this pure happiness for a while longer. Furthermore, Aldrich also needed to be prepared.

After dinner, my mother and I went to the garden for a walk, but I couldn’t calm down and listen to what interesting things my mother said. My heart was filled with my lover. I didn’t know if he had returned home. Was he thinking about me too?

I also thought of the sunset today, but I couldn’t remember the details. I only remembered the shocking red that covered the entire sky and Aldrich’s smiling eyes and soft lips.

“What do you think? Hmm?” I didn’t know what my mother said, but she asked for my opinion. Seeing that I didn’t answer, she looked at me very worriedly.

I could only comfort her. ” Mom, I... I do have something to discuss with you, but not today. I think I need to be alone for a while.”

After bidding farewell to my mother, I lay on the bed alone and couldn’t help but giggle. I was sure I looked very silly if someone captured my expression now. I knew it with my toes, but I couldn’t sleep. Whenever I closed my eyes, the sweetness would rush into my heart. I was dizzy, like a drunk, and kept looking for alcohol. The alcohol that made me drunk was Aldrich.

The phone’s ringing interrupted my thoughts. It was a message from Aldrich.

We were even now. I wasn’t the only one thinking about him. This was probably the telepathy between couples. When I saw his message, my heart was like a happy little bird, jumping and dancing on my chest.

Aldrich wrote. [I can’t wait to see you tomorrow.]

He must be making plans for our date tomorrow. We’d been listening to him when we went out before.

I replied. [I haven’t slept either. I can’t sleep at all.]

Aldrich responded. [I miss you too.]

We kept the conversation going. I didn’t know I was such a talkative person. I seemed to have accumulated all the words I hadn’t said in the first half of my life and used them today. I didn’t even want to sleep until the second half of the night. I wanted tomorrow to come sooner and the sun to rise now.

In the end, Aldrich forced me to sleep, and our chat ended. But it would be soon. We still had training tomorrow morning, and it will be just the two of us. I would tell him how much I miss him and like him.

With this in mind, I fell asleep. Almost immediately, I fell into a sweet dream. In my dream, I saw all the beautiful things. Of course, I could soon snuggle up with my lover.

The next day, I woke up more than an hour earlier than usual. I barely slept, but I didn’t feel sleepy or anything else.

When we were having breakfast, my mother was shocked to see me. “Baby, aren’t you going to sleep a little longer?”

“No need, Mom! I’ve slept enough. I’m getting ready to go to training!” I happily ate the love-filled breakfast that my mother had prepared for me.

My mother started to look at me probingly again. I guessed she must have felt I was not normal these two days.

“I’m really fine,” I emphasized. “I’m just really, really looking forward to today’s training.”

“I thought your attitude toward Aldrich would always be cold, but there are still two hours before your training starts. Do you remember that you have some tasks to deal with today?” My mother put a wet blanket over me with a smile.

Oh, right! I almost forgot. There was still the damned class. I shouldn’t have argued with my father to shorten the time. I had brought it on myself.
