At this moment, Mellisa didn't speak, she just sat quietly in his arms. Her eyes calmly closed as she sank into a deep thought.
The silence of midnight spread throughout the living room.
Leonard didn't want to bother her. But he stared at Mellisa's face with a pair of sharp eyes, trying to see through her mind.
