I glared at him, annoyed. I exited the bathroom as soon as I was done.

Perhaps it due to the pregnancy, but I seemed to look... rounder when I stared at my reflection at the dressing table.

"Why?" I thought the dress I had on was alright, as summer was already here in Ucrebury. A long dress was definitely fitting for the season.

He walked past me and peered inside the wardrobe. Taking out a light pink suit jacket from within, he handed it to me. "Put on a coat."

I wanted to say something, but he stared at me with a stern face.

Helplessly, I put on my jacket in silence.

I went downstairs and heard some noises coming from the kitchen. I was shocked, thinking that it was a thief. However, I saw that Hendrix was wearing a calm face.
