Summer was still in a daze when she woke up.
She still found it hard to focus her attention, and guessed it was because she woke up too early. But she couldn't sleep anymore.
Therefore, Summer was a bit uncomfortable as she had to suffer from her dizziness. She then asked with her eyes half-open, "What time is it?”
Waiting for a while, Summer received no response. Summer suddenly opened her eyes and turned around, only to find that no one was beside her.
Summer then rolled over and supported her upper body up with both her hands on the bed sheets. She looked around and saw no sign of Leonardo.
Very quickly, Summer's hands became sore and she couldn't hold on any longer. After using up the strength, Summer fell back on the bed.
Right at this moment, a slight sound came from the door.
The door was opened from the outside the next second. The person who opened the door waited at the door for a moment before walking over. The footsteps were steady and forceful.
Summer immediately recognized that it was Leonardo. Actually, Leonardo's footsteps weren't so special compared to those of others. But Summer could still tell the difference.
Summer lay on the bed without moving. Not long after, Leonardo's voice sounded by the bed, "Are you awake?"
Summer did not move, but asked him, "What time is it?"
Leonardo was silent for a moment and said, "Are you hungry?" His voice sounded the same as usual, but his tone was much gentler.
However, Summer turned her head and looked at him. She repeated herself in a more serious tone, "What time is it?"
It was just a simple question but it seemed hard for Leonardo to answer.
Leonardo frowned and only replied after a long time, "It's four in the afternoon."
"Four in the afternoon..." Summer muttered to herself. She hadn't come to her full senses and was a little absent-minded. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon?
