Three days had passed. Odette was preparing breakfast for herself using the ingredients she bought yesterday. She took a deep breath countless times. No matter how hard she tried to distract herself, she couldn’t forget about Rion. She didn’t know how the man was right now.
Was the man eating well and … during these three nights, was he able to sleep?
Odette remembered that Rion couldn’t sleep at all when they had a fight.
She pressed her lips tightly. Her face gradually reddened and the corners of her eyes filled with tears. She couldn’t contain the sadness as she recalled Rion lying on her lap while telling her to help him to sleep.
'... I can’t sleep without you. You are my sleeping pill.'
Rion’s words echoed in her mind, and it made her tears fall uncontrollably. When Odette ate her soup while crying, the soup also reminded her of Rion. She then swallowed the soup along with her tears.
