Sheldon replied, "It's no trouble at all. Just doing what I should."

In truth he had been looking forward to doing something like this for her. He didn't find it troublesome at all, in fact he was very happy to do it. Because he would be helping Preslie out.

He didn't realize how happy it would have made him until now.

"Then you'll still continue to live in Nashaland, right? You won't be going home after all?" Sheldon then asked.

"No." Preslie replied, "I'd better stay in Nashaland. Otherwise, my parents will call even more relatives over. I won't be able to stand that."

Sheldon couldn't stop smiling.

He was over the moon at this news.

Frankly speaking, things just hadn't felt the same after she'd left.

Although they lived together, they've never really crossed each other's boundaries. They both had their own rooms as well. So there really was no reason for him to feel weird about not having her around. Preslie finally began to relax the moment they got back to Sheldon's home.

She had lived in Sheldon's place for quite some time now. In the beginning she'd felt hesitant to live here, but Sheldon's place felt like home to her now.

She had run away to her parent's house in Agaphen City last night, but it didn't feel the same there anymore.

The moment she got home, she dropped herself on the couch and switched on the television.

She relaxed on the sofa and began munching on some potato chips as she watched a romance movie.

Sheldon saw this and smiled.

He finally realized why things had felt weird before.

It's because she wasn't around anymore. It was weird not to see her relaxing on the sofa, eating snacks and occasionally laughing at something on the television.

Ever since Preslie moved in with him, his empty house had begun to feel like a home. His lonely world didn't feel so empty anymore.

Midway through the movie, an advertisement began to play. Preslie took out her phone.

She casually scrolled through her news feed when her eyes suddenly widened.
