Hera made her bed before scattering her books on it. Homework was an unwelcomed bitch, but she managed to complete it after some whining and cursing. She distanced herself from her friends for the night as they were busy indulging in a conversation with Clara.
Obviously, Clara wouldn't appreciate Hera's participation.
Hera noticed she looked happy. She was smiling a lot since their dinner.
Hera bundled up herself in her fluffy warm blanket and closed her eyes. Her mind recollected the day's events as sleep refused to accompany her tired eyes.
'It's a sign. You're stuck with me for life, Mrs Hunter.'
Hunter had said it countless times in the past. It never failed to make her heart flutter. Clara's laughter disturbed Hera's thoughts, and she peeked above her blanket in her direction. She was really in a good mood.
Now Hera's sleepless mind went back to the dinner that evening, remembering Noel's conversation with her.
