Dolores, who was lying on the bed, talked in her sleep suddenly. Her voice was too small and Matthew could not hear it clearly. He put his ear near her lips and he could hear it this time. She was calling his name.

Matthew held her hand and whispered, “I’m here.”

Dolores could not hear it and she called out again, “Matthew---”

Matthew lay on the edge of the bed and hugged her. The hug was very familiar. They shared a bed every night and they had become very familiar with each other.

It was his scent and she knew it. She moved closer to Matthew in a daze, “Matthew, don’t be sad. I’ll stay with you.”

She did not open her eyes, as if she was talking in her sleep.

Matthew opened his eyes. His thick eyelashes fluttered a few times, and then he closed them finally. He only slept for a while and then woke up.

He was very tired these past few days. He was not able to sleep even for a short while as Joshua was missing.

The sky outside was still dark. He helped Dolores to tuck in the quilt and then touched her forehead. The fever seemed to have gone down. It was not hot anymore. However, he could not stay with her now as he had to go and find Joshua.

He looked at her affectionately, got up, walked out gently and closed the door.

He went to Armand’s room after he went downstairs. He asked him to not let Dolores go back today.

Armand felt that something was wrong, “What’s wrong?”

He sat up from the bed.

The lights were not switched on in the room. Matthew stood at the doorway, “Joshua is missing.”

“What?!” Armand shouted subconsciously.

“Lower your volume.” Matthew did not explain much, “Help me to keep an eye on this place.”
