The Returning Ex

Zack did not give it any further consideration and just nodded. “I do. I have one more with me. I’ll bring it to you in a bit.”

Then, he looked at Sophia. “What would you like to have for dinner?”

Sophia looked somewhat downcast. “I don’t know. Up to you guys. I have no preferences.”

Her initial thought was to ask Zack to get her a morning-after pill but after giving it some thought, she decided not to do that as she reckoned it would be better for her to get them herself.

Zack stared at her. “What’s wrong? Is your stomach feeling unwell after drinking?”

“No.” Sophia smiled. “I’m just a little tired.”

Zack grinned. “Why are you still tired after such a long nap?”

After cracking the joke, he turned around and headed out to ask John what he would like to have.

John was equally exhausted. He leaned on the couch and was on his phone. “Let’s call room service, shall we? I don’t feel like moving much.”

Seeing him, a somewhat evil thought crossed Zack’s mind. “What’s wrong with the two of you? Why are you both so tired? Are you guys hiding something?”

John slowly looked up at Zack, not saying a word.

Very quickly, Zack’s face turned serious. “I’ll just place the orders. Let’s eat here then.”
