Luca scratched her hair. She was not sure how she slept which led to her hair being so messy.

Her hair was like a cockscomb when she was eating the oats and chatting with Luke...

'How embarrassing!'

Luca picked up a comb and quickly brushed her hair before she walked out of the bathroom.

Luke sat at the dresser and looked at the prescription for Luca that Johann left.

After he sorted out her medicine, he looked back at her and said, "Come and take your medicine."

"Okay." Luca picked up the cup on the bedside table and walked to the dresser. She then picked up three pills, put the pills in her mouth, and took a sip of water.

After she swallowed the medicine, she finished the rest of the water.

Luke frowned and said, "Is it bitter?"

"All medicines are bitter. They're not too bad," Luca said as she put the cup down.

"I'll give you candy tomorrow. It's getting late. Get some rest." Luke coaxed her like she was a child.

Luca's cheeks were slightly flushed. 'He's going to give me candy? Does he see me as a child?'

She thought about it and felt that it was not the worst idea to be his kid.

"What about you?" Luca sat on the edge of the bed and looked at him.

"I'll go take a shower. Go to bed," Luke said. He pulled the blanket back and gestured for her to lie down.

Luca hesitated for a while before she looked up at him. "Mr. Crawford, why don't you go back to your bedroom to sleep tonight?"

"Why?" Luke was not angry at her. He raised his eyebrows and tried to understand where she was coming from.
