It was past midnight when Alastair returned to his room. Except for the time at dinner where he had seen Samantha for a brief time, he had not been able to speak to her and even see her. He had been dealing with a lot of issues the entire day, focusing his time and attention on them. Even though Samantha was the one on his mind, he could not ignore the important matters for her.
Now that he had finished dealing with all the problems, Samantha had gone to sleep. Alastair was longing to see her and speak to her, and if possible, even kiss her. But he knew that going to her room at this time of the night was not right. So, he just stopped himself as he sat on his bed, reminiscing the kiss he had shared with his dear girl in the courtroom.
