September 20th, 2023. At the Ayala North Exchange Tower 1.
Richard was sleeping soundly on Sara's bed soundly as he tried to recoup his sleep. He had been awake for the last 24 hours to prepare the camp for the wave, which was thankfully completed.
His peaceful sleep ended when someone shook him gently.
"Richard…Richard…wake up," Sara said softly.
Richard stirred, slowly opening his eyes to see Sara's face close to his. "Hmm, what time is it?" he mumbled, still half-asleep.
"It's exactly six o'clock in the evening," Sara replied, a gentle smile on her face. "You said to wake you up at six."
"Oh, I see," Richard sat up, still feeling a bit groggy. He glanced at Sara and, in a spontaneous moment of affection, reached out to gently pull her onto the bed beside him. Sara let out a surprised giggle as she landed softly next to him.
