Chapter 35

I woke up with my cheek flat on the floor. After a few seconds, I realized that I fell asleep during last night's study session.

There was a blanket over me. Gene must have placed it while I was sleeping.

Come to think of it, I always wake up with a blanket over me every time I fall asleep outside my room. Was it his doing?

From the corner of my eye, I saw Gene sleeping soundly on his bed. I crawled nearer to have a better view.

He's so cute.

I poked his cheek.

"What are you doing, Beatrice?" Gene sleepily rubbed his eye.

"Good morning," I greeted him.

"Do we have school today?"

"Nope."

"Goodnight." He went back to sleep.

Typical Gene. Married to his bed.

I got up and accidentally lost my footing. My shoulder slammed against the closet.

"Ouch..."

I glanced at Gene. He didn't move at all. I could hear a faint snore.

A hat dropped from the closet. I picked it up.

A conductor hat? I feel like I've seen this somewhere.
