J has already taken a shower when Jacob returns. She is wearing one of the nightdresses that Madam Kelly bought for her. It was a silk, nude color nightdress that reached just above her knees. She started to get used to it but only for Jacob. She would still prefer her pajama pants and shorts.
She is sitting on the bed with a book in her hand. Her lower part of the body is covered by the blanket.
She raised her head and met Jacob's gaze. "Is everything okay?" She asked although she knows that it is not.
"Yeah." He said then he laid beside her then he wrapped his arms over her stomach and rested his face under her chin. She raised her chin to give him more space and brushed his hair with her palm.
She knows that he is lying. Her current situation can never be okay.
"Hmm… why don't you take a quick shower so that you can take a rest?" She is worried that Jacob might fall asleep in his position.
