Alan also saw Rose and nodded at her, "Hello, Ms. Rose."
"Mr. Way, good evening." Rose greeted him.
Alan carried Nora to the bed and put her down, covered her with the blanket, and said with concern, "Have a good rest. Let me know if you feel unwell. I'll get the doctor."
"No need. I'm fine." Nora thought that Alan made a fuss. It was just a minor injury. "I'm not so weak."
"As Mrs. Way, you must take good care of yourself." Alan was rarely serious.
The current him was completely different from the one who was always laughing and joking, which made Nora feel that she was not used to it.
"You stay away from me." Nora could feel his hot breath.
Such close contact made her uncomfortable. After all, except for that light kiss at the wedding when they were married, they hadn't even held hands.
"We're a couple. Ms. Rose can understand it." Alan smiled softly.
Nora looked at him and seemed to signal that they didn't have to pretend to be in love in front of her best friend.
Last time in a fast food restaurant, Rose had seen him with his girlfriend.
"You're not spending time with your girlfriend today?" Nora changed the subject to let him know that there was no secret between her and Rose.
"I have no girlfriend long ago." Alan was frank enough to admit it. The last time they made trouble in the fast food restaurant and he broke up with his girlfriend.
"Mr. Way, you are chasing the next woman, right?" Nora had met several of his girlfriends.
"Mrs. Way, I am not interested in playing through life anymore. I want to return to my family and be a good husband." Alan kept smiling and no one knew whether his words were true or false.
But in Nora's eyes, it was definitely false, "Mr. Way, come on."
"Then Mrs. Way, let's wait and see." Alan got up from the edge of the bed and put his hands in his pockets, "You guys chat. I'm going to take a shower."
Alan turned to Rose who was standing not far away, "Ms. Rose, please take care of Nora tonight. Call me if you need anything. I'll sleep in the opposite room."
"Mr. Way, don't worry. I will take good care of Nora." Rose nodded.
Alan took one more look at Nora and then left.
After the door was closed, Nora heaved a sigh of relief. Rose also walked over, "Alan is quite concerned about you. It is just a minor injury. But he is so nervous. Maybe he likes you?"
"He likes me?" Nora snorted incredulously, "Rose, what are you thinking? He, a playboy, will like me? He likes me while he can like many other women. This kind of love is so cheap. Do you want it?"
Rose was silenced by Nora and felt that what Nora said was reasonable.
"Alright. It's bedtime." Nora was about to change into her pajamas.
Rose lifted the blanket and went to bed. It was many years ago that they lay in the same bed.
Now that they were lying together, those school days came back to their mind.
