Chapter 160
Tyler was still looking at Vicky sharply. Vicky did not know what he could see in the dark, but she did not open her eyes or move, acting as though she was asleep.
She could not tell how long it had been. When she was finally falling asleep, Tyler finally left. At first, she thought Tyler might not come back.
When she was deep in her sleep, she heard someone opening the door and walking. Shortly, the other side of the bed sunk a little. Later, she was pulled into a familiar pair of arms.
The smell of the sanitizer floated in the air. The pungent smell was terrible and it disgusted her and even woke her from her sleep. Her instinct kicked in and she tried to struggle away from the hug.
Tyler paused. Seconds later, his voice rang in the dimmed room, "You're awake?"
"Yeah." Vicky moved over to the other side of the bed and said softly, "The disinfectant smell on your body is too strong. I'm not very comfortable with it."
After a moment of silence, he said, "I'll go take a shower."
He thus got down from the bed and went to the bathroom. After he finished his shower, and Vicky having fallen back to sleep, he got onto the bed and pulled Vicky into his arms.
She struggled for a while before she fell back to sleep in his arms.
A silver light pierced the sky. Thunder roared as lightning struck the sky.
The sky rumbled.
Vicky's eyelids flapped open.
A downpour was unleashed, and the rain slammed against the window. Long watermark streaks ran down the glass as though they were teardrops.
She sat on the bed and looked to the side unconsciously. It was empty, and the side of the bed looked undisturbed as though no one had slept with her.
She looked at the time. It was half past one in the early morning.
