After some time had passed, Paul emerged from his room, searching for his father, William, who was nowhere to be found in the study room. Paul couldn't help but wear a mischievous grin as he picked up a glass from the table, a subtle indication of his playful nature.
Then he made his way to his mother's room. Inside, the room was shrouded in darkness, and Anne was soundly sleeping, her slumber seemingly deep and undisturbed. William was lying alongside her in an unusual and somewhat precarious position.
Paul put the glass that his father used and the half wine bottle on the table.
Paul stood there for a moment, observing the sight of his parents sleeping peacefully. But his presence did not go unnoticed, as Anne, still in a drowsy state, mumbled her concerns for William.
"Babe, get up on the bed properly, or you may fall."
