Wu yawned as he sat up "Ugh, my usual headaches" He said massaging his temple before turning his head to the side, eyes in search of lijuan. He recalled what happened last night, and it was somewhat understandable that he wouldn't wake up to meet her beside him.
He sighed, then plopped himself back on the bed "Maybe I'm the one that was wrong. I must've pressured her, but, the way she reacted to me kissing her was the problem. It's not something new to us, so why is she rejecting my touch all of a sudden? I got angry because it felt like I haven't made progress at all. If she doesn't allow me to kiss her anymore, then it's good as saying that I'm back on step one."
Wu lifted his gaze to his girlfriend that had just stepped out of the bathroom. They stared at each other for a while, not a word uttered, and they felt bad at each other's unwanted silence.
