The way his hand was stroking my hair softly made me feel slightly sleepy. It felt like I was ready to doze off to sleep at any moment. It was great that we could enjoy the peace, but I wasn’t foolish enough to believe that it could last forever. First of all, my leave days were limited, and I couldn’t be on holiday with Ace indefinitely. I also wanted to return to my job because there was still a part of me that wanted to make great progression in my career. All of that meant that sooner or later, we would have to go back to our regular life and face the reality of everything that was waiting for us.
“I wonder how we’re going to deal with the mess when we get back,” I murmured sleepily.
“How do you want to deal with it?” Ace asked as he kept on stroking my hair.
“I don’t know…” I replied honestly.
