Chapter 24:

Say knocked softly in Nick's room. It was about 3 PM again.

“Your food is here, Nick.”

There was no response from Nick. She held the knob and sees it wasn’t locked.

Maybe he is sleeping again. Perhaps he is trying to get used to the difference in the new timezone. I’ll probably just need to wake him up again.

"Nick, I'm getting inside..."

And then she saw his head resting on a desk, looking asleep.

“Well, you're really sleeping. And of all places, in the study desk. Tsk Tsk, he didn't even move to the bed... ” she muttered under her breath but that was when Nick just moved his head a little and softly talk.

“I am not asleep. Just sleepy.”

What’s the difference, anyway? “Okay. Then go ahead and eat your lunch. Here it is.”

“What is that food?” He raised his head and looked at what she was carrying.

“Fried fish. Rice. Ketchup.” She nonchalantly answered. She’s been giving him the same food for the last 4 days he’s with her.

“Again?”
