That night, Lilia turned over on the bed. She tried to close her eyes, but the sleepiness didn't come. Lilia sighed while opening her eyes. The empty side of the bed brought a feeling of loneliness to the woman's heart.
She reached for her cell phone and checked the clock. It was 11:52 p.m., but Jean hadn't come back yet. Lilia turned on the small lamp beside her bed before lying back on her back. She stared at the ceiling of her room while thinking of the problem with the project partnering Pangestu Family.
What kind of problem had occurred? How big was this problem that Jean had to work overtime most nights? What could she do to help solve this problem?
Lilia didn't know how long she thought about it until she finally fell asleep. She only remembered that someone covered her and kissed her forehead. The person's actions were gentle and warmed her dreams.
