The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

After tossing around in her bed a couple of times, John fell asleep, and it seemed to her that he hadn’t heard a single word she said earlier.

Forget it, maybe he really drank too much, Sophia thought and went into the bathroom for a towel.

She wiped his face and hands before proceeding to take off his jacket. Although he was drunk, he was rather cooperative and removed his clothes as she wanted.

Finally, she placed the blankets over him and then went to his room. Even though she wasn’t used to his bed, she was tired and fell asleep soon after she lay down.

When it was almost daybreak, she was awakened by the sound of the door. Opening her eyes, she saw John coming into the room.

Without the need to ask, she already knew what he was up to, and she turned her back toward him. “You’re annoying.”

John grinned and hugged her from behind. “I can’t sleep when you’re not next to me.”

Couldn’t be bothered with him, she closed her eyes and continued to sleep until late morning without even knowing when he had left the room.

So she returned to her room and washed up before coming out again. That was when she heard Matilda’s voice from downstairs, saying, “That’s right, lay it out here where it’s slippery. That side as well, and also over there, that left side…”
