Three hours had passed since I entered the room. My heart had long settled, but I had yet to fall asleep. I had already taken a bath, thinking maybe some hot water could help, and changed into clothes more suited for sleeping than a suit, but nothing.
I had fallen asleep earlier, so maybe I wasn't tired, but my constant yawning told another story. I was definitely exhausted and wanted to sleep, but I couldn't. I began to consider other ways to fall asleep and why I couldn't get myself to relax when Lulu's face popped into my mind.
"Ah...I see. It's the first time we've ever slept apart at night?" I said to myself. "To think it would be something so simple."
I couldn't help but wonder if Lulu had the same problem, as I felt my heart start to beat as I paced the room. I began to think of somewhat irrational ideas as I tried to remember precisely where Lulu's room was.
