The Woman From Hell

That night, I returned to Regal Villa exhausted.

There was no ruckus coming from the living room, and I knew then that Delia was not in tonight. When she was in, the villa would be filled with her voice. It was incredibly noisy.

I went up to the second floor and snuck into the children's room. Their shallow snores made me feel satisfied.

Suddenly, there was a low and melodious sound of a cello.

I went downstairs suspiciously, only to find out that Theo was tinkering with the music box on the table.

He turned his head when he heard movement, his brows raised. He motioned for me to be careful.

I looked at the red wine and steak on the table, as well as the red roses. My heart got caught in something. I was very moved.

"We haven't had time to ourselves for a long time. Why don't we do that tonight?"

Theo said with a faint smile as he leaned against the table. His sharp facial lines softened with that smile, and he looked a little more gentle.

I went downstairs slowly. He reached out his slender fingers to support me, and it made me think back to the time when we first met. The two of us pressed closer to each other's waists at the same time and danced.
