By midnight, they finally went to sleep. They lay on the bed, hugging each other while discussing many things.
Just as drowsiness started to overtake Scarlett, Xander suddenly started talking about her plans to go to the US. Instantly her tiredness vanished as her eyes opened wide.
"So you're going to attend Rex's birthday party?" Xander asked. He had heard she promised Rex to come over, but this girl had never discussed it with him since then.
And now, he couldn't bear to hear directly from her lips about her plan to meet that bastard, Rex!
Scarlett slowly looked up into his sad eyes and felt slightly sorry. She knew Xander had a grudge against Rex, and that's why she never wanted to talk about Rex with him.
She thought, for a moment, about talking to Xander without upsetting or annoying him even more.
