Chapter 44

"Wake up! You shouldn't think of another man!"

She slapped her face, covering her ears with her hands, but the more she did, the more clearly she recalled what he said to her last night.

His resolute voice echoed in her ears. His withdrawal from her room last night made her miss him. She crossed her arms and wrapped them around herself.

'What can I do if I can't control my feelings?'
