Luke slept off his hangover until the afternoon, waking up groggily. Before even opening his eyes, he absentmindedly traced the smooth skin of the woman beside him, softly murmuring, "Chloe ..."

I realized that the day I truly let go of him would be the day I vanished from this world completely.

I couldn't help but find it laughable. If a man is truly drunk, he won't be able to get it up.
