On the other side.

After dinner, Sherry turned off the lights and pulled Stella down to watch a movie together.

It was a classic Hong Kong comedy movie of the nineties.

Sherry had watched it many times, but she always found it interesting.

Stella sat beside her quietly.

The movie ended at almost eleven in the evening.

As Stella yawned, Sherry picked up her phone and suggested tentatively, "I forgot to get you a new phone. How about I order one now?"

Stella rubbed her eyes and said, "Let's wait until tomorrow. It's quite late now, and I'm a little sleepy."

Sherry thought for a while and offered, "Well… perhaps you can sleep here? We haven't slept in one bed for a long time."

Stella paused and gave a gentle nod because Clarence would not come home tonight.

They lay on the bed. Sherry said, "Stella, have you thought about taking a break? Like taking a vacation or something?"

Stella was confused, "What?"

"Well…" Sherry fidgeted her fingers over the quilt, whispering, "You're pregnant, so I think you might need a good rest. Well, do you remember the place you went to with Clarence last time? Maybe you can go there. It must be helpful for the baby."

Stella made a disapproving grunt. "It's too far away. I don't think I can suffer such a long trip. Do you want to go there? I'll go with you when the baby is delivered."

Sherry stammered, "Okay, good."

Sherry would say something, but she stopped as Stella was sleepy. Sherry gently patted Stella's back, "Good night."

Stella mumbled, "Good night."

Ten or twenty minutes later, Sherry gently lifted the blanket and got out of bed after making sure Stella was asleep.
