The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

“Mm,” she responded through pursed lips, then waited until he was back in his room before closing the door.

She leaned against the door. Why is my face burning up?

After taking a few deep breaths, she went into the bathroom.

Once she was done with her shower, she had settled down quite a bit.

She lay down in bed and tried not to let her mind wander.

A man and a woman alone together, not to mention the fact that they used to have an intimate relationship. There was bound to be a surge of emotions.

John doesn’t like it when I do those things. At the thought of that, her heart slowly calmed down.

It was very effective.

She flipped over and looked out the window.

One good thing about living in the hills was that she did not have to worry about people peeping in even when she did not draw the curtains before going to sleep at night.

From where she was, she could see the stars.

She had only seen them previously when she lived in her small village.

After a while, sleep finally started to overcome her.

She let out a sigh then slowly fell asleep.

Meanwhile, John also went into the bathroom and took a cold shower to calm himself down.
