Three a.m. in the morning, in St. Petersburg time. Alexander was snoring loudly in his sleep. His right arm is placed over Anya, who was sleeping soundly with her thumb sucked on her mouth.
Sophie smiled at the adorable sight before, staring at them for a minute to etch it on her mind.
Sophie usually wakes up at three or four in the morning. It was a sleeping habit that she can't easily change. Whenever she woke up earlier than Alexander, sometimes she would stroke his hair and caressed it gently so as to not wake him up. But that was only when he was sleeping soundly. So instead of caressing Alexander's scalps, she caressed Anya's instead.
Doing this would make her feel sleepy, and thus return to sleep. Sometimes it won't work so to pass the time, she would often read books until dawn break.
