ready to go out. "Wait for me."

| drank the juice from the table, grabbed a sandwich, and went out with Nicky.

She was still as gentle and refined as before as if everything was peaceful. Even when she had injuries on her

hands and forehead, she did not seem to care.

Nicky turned her head and glanced at me, then looked straight ahead. She slowly said, "Actually, there's no need

for you to hurry. | can get a cab."

I smiled at her, and after | got into the car with her, I said, "If | go any later, I'll be late for work. Even | can't

break the rules."

I had always been disciplined, so | naturally would not be late nor leave early because of my identity. One had to

abide by srules. Plus, | did not want Theo to be placed in a difficult spot because of me.

Nicky responded tolightly and no longer said anything else. | glanced at the wounds on her forehead and

felt more relieved.

stayed on the bed with my eyes closed and waited for him to cout.

The sound of water running stopped, and after a short while, a whiff of fragrance assaulted my nostrils. | rolled

over to hug him and opened my eyes with a smile.

Theo looked atdotingly and scratched my nose. "When did you wake up?"

"Not long ago. You must be tired. Why don't | give you a massage?"

"It's rare for you to offer. Of course." He stood up after saying this.

| went behind him and squeezed his shoulders. "Is this alright?”

"es."

Theo seemed to be enjoying himself. He closed his eyes and enjoyed my massage.

"Is the preparation almost complete?"

"Almost. The day after tomorrow will be the film festival. We'll have to do everything well without making any

"I believe that it'll be successful," | said firmly.

Hearing the tone in my voice, there seemed to be a smirk on the corners of his lips. " Since my wifey said that

it'll be a success, it'll surely be a success."

"Do you think I'm sfortune teller? That everything | said will ctrue?" | smiled and squeezed his shoulder

harder.

"Alright, alright. Enough with the massage.’

He took my hands down and rubbed his shoulders Perhaps | had used too much force earlier, and it caused him

festival the day after tomorrow, so | can't let you tag along."

Although | felt that it was regretful hearing him say that, | was not upset over it. That's alright. There's a live

broadcast anyway. I'll watch it at hand prepare a feast for you while | wait for you to chome."

"Okay. Be a good girl and wait forat home."

Afterward, Theo left a light kiss on my forehead...
