Today was the third day after Bright left. After Rose came back from the hospital, she played games with Doris for a while and studied with her. After that, she put Doris to bed and read her a bedtime story.
Rose went back to her bedroom and rubbed her neck, and then she took a bath.
It was already ten o' clock when she lay back in bed. She gave Bright a video call.
After a while, Bright picked it up. He was wearing a white shirt, which made him look more charming.
Rose stared at him for a while and didn't collect herself until he coughed softly.
"Am I bothering you?" Rose's cheeks were a little flushed.
"No." Bright sat in the single sofa with one leg crossed.
"When will you be back?" Rose felt that she missed him all the more when she was sleeping alone these days without him.
"Do you miss me?" Bright smiled, slightly raised his eyebrows.
"No." Rose denied it decisively.
Bright was not angry, but his eyes were smiling. "Since you don't miss me, I will stay here for a period of time before I come back."
"How long would it be?" She asked casually.
"You want to know?" Bright seemed to be trying to keep her interested.
"I don't really want to know." said Rose, not telling the truth.
"Then I don't need to tell you." Bright curled his lips, with a gleam of cunning light in his eyes.
He sat there with grace and ease like a cunning hunter, patiently waiting for prey to fall into his pit.
Rose, on the other hand, looked like a kid compared to Bright. She couldn't keep her composure and said, "If you don't talk about it, I'll go to sleep now."
"Really? Don't want to know it?" Bright asked her.
"But you didn't tell you." Rose was complaining. "I'll listen if you tell me."
"Well, listen." Bright looked deeply into her eyes through the screen of the phone and said word by word, "I will come back when you miss me."
Rose's beautiful eyes widened.
What did he mean by that? He would come back when she missed him, and if she didn't miss him, he wouldn't come back?
He was forcing her to say something shy.
Oh, it would embarrass her.
Rose was a bit dissatisfied. She was not convinced, but she was too embarrassed to say.
"Well, you can come back when you want to." Rose smiled mischievously. "I'm going to sleep."
And then she hung up Bright's video call.
She dropped the phone beside her bed, pulled the cover over herself, and closed her eyes to sleep.
And then she opened her eyes again, leaned over, took her phone, and found Bright out. After two seconds of hesitation, she edited the text, "I miss you so much right now..." And then she sent it.
