Sophie was puzzled, "Why buy so many pajamas?"
With a serious look, Jake replied, "Wait until I get back from M Country, and you'll move in with me."
Sophie was even more surprised, "Why would I move in with you?"
Jake chuckled lightly, "Because I'll cook your favorite meals every day, let you sleep in, and we can both be late to work without anyone minding!"
Sophie suspected these were just excuses, but she dared not confront him with the real reason.
She didn't agree, but she didn't refuse either. Murmuring a non-committal response, she got up to grab her pajamas for a shower.
A few steps away, she heard Jake say from behind, "Don't worry, before you move in, I'll talk to Mrs. Jasmine."
Sophie nearly stumbled, turning back in surprise.
Jake was calm, "What, worried Mrs. Jasmine might not agree?"
With a cold chuckle, Sophie thought her mom would probably be too delighted to even keep her face mask on properly.
Grabbing her pajamas, she headed for the guest bathroom, just as Jake entered, "Is the water in the master bath too hot or too cold?"
"Huh?" Sophie looked at him, puzzled.
"Why are you heading to the guest bathroom to shower?" Jake asked.
"After showering, I'll sleep in the guest room," said Sophie quickly, waving her hand, "Goodnight!"
But Jake caught her wrist in a grasp, frowning at her, "Sleep in the guest room?"
Thinking of the blue box in the drawer made the master bedroom seem all too dangerous to Sophie. She laughed nervously, "Sleeping together, we won't sleep well, and we both have work tomorrow."
"How would we not sleep well?" Jake pressed, his face calm.
