The next day.

I woke up late, and I saw that no one was home.

Theo and Nicky had both gone to work. I went out after washing up.

I was out to fulfill the promise I made and went to the hospital to accompany Shannon.

She tilted her head and looked at me before letting out a sigh.

I found her sigh highly inexplicable and looked at her. "Why are you sighing at me?"
