Vivian fell asleep quickly. He hadn't had fallen asleep this quickly before. He was in a deep slumber, aware of everything around. He was aware of Emerelda watching him carefully on a chair faced to him, the slight breeze from the balcony door what was open ajar, and the soft mattress underneath.
By the time he had woken up it was the next morning and Emerelda was sleeping on the chair with her head lopped. He looked around daze trying to remember last night dream. There was nothing.
His eyes went to the door and saw Julius. He raised his eyebrows looking away, "Why are you here?"
"I'm sorry."
Vivian was surprised but he crossed his arms, "Good for you. You can leave."
"Vivian, I'm truly sorry. My behavior yesterday should not have caused you any pain."
