âWake up and
Heâd learned from Sarahâs assistant, Betsy, that she had commitments the following day.
If she rested in her current state, sheâd surely wake with a splitting headache, negatively impacting her performance.
Half-asleep, Sarah was helped up and leaned on Aziel as she sipped on the hangover soup.
However, once she finished the soup, she regained some alertness and wasnât keen on settling down.
She sat upright on the bed, belched, and attempted to get out of bed.
Aziel immediately caught her.
âWhere are you headed?â
âI need to take a shower!â Sarah declared, swinging her arm as if she was headed not towards the bathroom but onto a battlefield.
She wiggled out of Azielâs hold and stumbled towards the bathroom.
However, her steps were wobbly, causing her to nearly trip multiple times, only to be saved by Azielâs quick reflexes each time.
Observing her in this state, Aziel sighed, anxious that she might harm herself in the shower.
He softened his voice, coaxing her Like a child, âItâs quite late now.
Could you possibly shower after waking up tomorrow?â
âNo!â Sarah stubbornly shook her head, continuing her shaky march towards the bathroom.
âI need to shower noi
âYou canât bathe in your current state,â Aziel expressed helplessly, âIt doesnât feel safe.

The vulnerability and sorrow in his eyes gave him the appearance of a drenched puppy.
Sarah looked at him for a moment before breaking into a chuckle.
She wrapped her arms around his neck, teasingly asking, âThen, will you help me in my shower?â
Upon hearing this, Azielâs face turned a deep shade of red, leaving him standing there, unsure of how to react.
Since becoming a couple, Aziel and Sarah hadnât progressed their relationship further.
Their closest encounters had been limited to ki*ses.
Seeing no movement from Aziel, Sarah presumed he was unwilling, immediately furrowing her brows, âArenât you my boyfriend? Why wonât you help me?â
Hearing her, Aziel glanced at her, his hold on her hand unconsciously tightening, âWho am I?â
âOf course, youâre my baby.
â Sarah gave him a teasing smile.

However, Aziel wasnât content with her response and pressed on, âAnd whoâs your baby?â
Sarah glanced at him, cradling his face in her hands, and earnestly called his name, âAziel.
â
The person who was intoxicated just moments ago now had clear, sober eyes.
Recognizing what was happening, Azielâs suppressed emotions burst forth, and he gazed at her, his teeth clenched.
âWerenât you going to break up with me?â
Sarahâs slender fingers lightly intertwined with Azielâs hair, her gentle palm cupping his head as she brushed her lips against his, murmuring, âDidnât you refuse to break up with me? So youâre still my boyfriend.
â
Aziel, who had presumed these words would bring him joy, stood still his facial expression seemingly calm.
