Evan didn’t reply.

Evan’s sharp eyes caught Nicole digging her fingernails into her flesh. He also saw her eyes glowing with endless anticipation and excitement, which got him to think that he should find a way to let Nicole see the kids.

 
 

“I got it. You and Kyle should go to bed soon as well.”

“Okay, daddy. We will.”

After hanging up, Evan got up to walk up the stairs. He was walking past Nicole when she suddenly asked, “Evan, do you really have amnesia? How do you still remember the kids?”

 

A chill ran down Evan’s spine. Should I confess now and tell her that I never had amnesia? No! I still need an excuse to prevent Nicole from checking my pulse. She will stay by my side as long as she doesn’t check my pulse and figures out that I was never poisoned.

 

“My parents told me that they are my kids, and there is no way my parents would lie to me,” informed Evan before he continued walking up the stairs.

Nicole didn’t comment on that.

 

Oh, no wonder. thought Nicole. She watched his back as he walked up the stairs, and a hint of sorrow flashed past her eyes.

Evan didn’t want Nicole secretly checking his pulse at night and realizing that he wasn’t sick. Hence, he didn’t share a room with her. Instead, he got Nicole to sleep in the room beside his.

 

Nicole tossed and turned at night. She couldn’t sleep and kept wondering, Is Evan asleep? Should I sneak in and check his pulse?

Evan was having an equally hard time falling asleep. Does Nicole need anyone to take care of her at night? Her body is weak. Should I go check on her?

The two lovebirds deliberated for a while before they got out of their bed at almost the same time. They both wanted to go check on the other.

When they got out of their rooms, they saw each other sneaking out. Their eyes met, and that got them frozen on the spot.

Nicole’s heart thumped fast when she saw Evan there. Who would’ve thought that Evan is still awake at this hour? Good thing I hesitated and came out late. It would’ve been so awkward if he caught me sneaking into his room.

Evan stared at Nicole. He was observant and noticed that she was cautious and tiptoeing earlier. She seems agile, so her body should be fine. Why was she sneaking around, though? What was she going to do?

“You haven’t gone to bed?” asked Evan after they stared into each other’s eyes for a while.
