The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Sophia directly walked into her room and closed the door. John could hear that she even locked the door.

Staring at the computer screen for a while, he started giggling.

Sophia did that intentionally. After she got changed and washed up, she lay down on her bed to read some entertainment news and play a game on her phone.

A while later, she heard someone turning the doorknob.

Gazing at the door, she knew that John was right outside the room.

Realizing that the door couldn’t be opened, he left the place without saying a word.

Sophia sighed, not certain whether she was disappointed or happy.

Since no sound was heard again outside the room, she lay down again and chided that man before she covered herself with a quilt and went to sleep.

Meanwhile, John had returned to his own room.

Since Sophia didn’t let him into the room, he decided not to pester her.

After he was done smoking a cigarette, he went into the bathroom to wash up.

Coming out, he realized that there was a new message from Isabelle, which read, ‘Good night.’

John stared at the message for a while and decided to take a look at Isabelle’s social media.
