Katherine was awakened by the door-knocking sound the next day.
The knock didn’t come from the outside door, it was her bedroom door.
She opened her eyes sleepily and directly asked who it was.
Marshall seemed speechless, “Who else could it be?”
“What do you want?” Katherine answered.
“Come out for a minute. I need to use the bathroom.”
Katherine turned over and hugged the blanket tight, “Come in.”
Marshall waited for a while and entered the bedroom.
But he was dressed neatly even in pajamas.
He looked at Katherine and said indifferently, “Come out for a sec. I’m going to use the bathroom. I’ll be
quick”
Kathrine didn’t even open her eyes, “You can do whatever you want as long as you are not using the
bed. I need to go back to sleep.”
Marshall didn’t budge.
Katherine knew what he was doing and was overjoyed on the inside.
Marshall waited for a while and walked in.
Katherine thought that he was going to the bathroom directly, but he approached the bed instead.
He first pulled the blanket and wrapped Katherine up.
Katherine stared at Marshall.
But Marshall just threw her outside into the couch, went straight back into the bedroom, and locked it.
Katherine struggled a bit and sat up with her hair in a mess.
She then giggled.
Marshall must want to use the toilet and probably can’t hold it any longer.
Katherine wondered for a while and went back to sleep.
Marshall took the chance to have a full shower during this time and went out in a while.
Seeing that Katherine was back to sleep, he returned to the bedroom.
There was a bag full of Katherine’s stomach pills on the nightstand.
Marshall looked away and stood by the window.
The morning breeze felt cool which seemed to have blown away the uneasiness in his heart.
He didn’t know why, but this feeling had been building up since last night.
Marshall stood for a while and heard the door knock.
He instantly knew who it was,
Marshall went over and wanted to open the door for Peter, but he turned around right when he was
about to get the door.
Katherine had a bad sleeping habits, sleeping gown rolled up to her legs and almost revealed her butt.
Marshall went over and covered her with the blanket.
He double-checked Katherine was completely covered, then he went to open the door for Peter.
Peter seemed rushed, “Hurry up! I’ve already rented a car. we’re going to...”
When he saw Katherine was still sleeping on the couch, Peter immediately stopped.
Marshall frowned, “Let’s wait a bit.”
He then nudged Katherine, “Get up.”
Katherine was sleeping soundly and just rolled over.
Marshall was blocking Katherine, “Do you want to go out today?”
Katherine half-opened her eyes in a while.
Marshall said coldly, “Go take a shower and get changed. Hurry up.”
Katherine then sat up and noticed Peter.
Hugging the blanket, Katherine tried to cover her body, but she was agitated.
While walking towards the bedroom, she complained, “Why didn’t you take me back inside after you
were done?”
Peter was taken aback and didn’t dare to look at her.
Who on earth was she referring to?
Peter pretended that he didn’t hear a thing.
Katherine entered the bedroom and took a long time to get ready.
She was all energetic when she was out again, but Peter was about to fall asleep.
Marshall was on his phone, “Don’t forget to take your pills.”
Katherine blinked her eyes and said, “Oh, thanks for the reminder.”
She then went back and brought some medicine on her.
Peter also stood up and said lazily, “How can you be able to live all by yourself? I’m really worried.”
Marshall only gazed at Katherine’s back and didn’t say anything.
