Mr. Conrad Proposes To His Ex-wife Again

Daniel gritted his teeth and wanted to say something, but Sherry turned around and closed her eyes. She said, “I felt so sleepy. Good night.”

It’s still raining outside and it seems that there was no intention of stopping.

Before long, Sherry’s breathing gradually became steady. Seemed like she was indeed asleep.

Daniel looked at her back, his lips pursed, wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into his embrace.

In the darkness, Sherry slowly opened her eyes, surprised by his action, lost in her thought while looking at the rain outside.

…

When Sherry woke up the next day, Daniel was no longer in the room.

Even before she opened her eyes, she already felt the aftermath of hangover. She retched a few times, but she didn’t vomit, feeling so dizzy.

Sherry moved her stiff and sore limbs, slowly put on some clothes, and went into the bathroom to wash up. She dragged her exhausted and weakened body downstairs after patting her face.

That’s when Daniel came in.

Sherry saw him and tried to say hello, “Morning.”

Daniel paused. “I'll get you an ice coke.”

Sherry sat at the table and said, “Thank you.”

Soon, Daniel came back with a can of coke and breakfast; he placed them in front of her.

He said, “The car is still in repair. Let’s drive another one.”

Sherry nodded while sipping the coke, “Okay.”

Daniel sat in front of her, opened his mouth several times, hesitant to speak, but didn’t say anything at last.

Sherry looked up in his eyes and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Daniel said, “Don’t you...have anything to say to me?”
