Lucy was sleeping soundly in the ward until the sound of the door opening startled her awake. Usually, such a slight noise would not disturb her, but it was probably due to her feeling uneasy.
As soon as she heard the familiar voices, her eyes were wide open. She found it strange that she could not fall back asleep after waking up. Closing her eyes did not help either, so she decided to sit up.
Cillian and Matthew did not notice Lucy at first. They assumed that she was still sleeping until they saw her sitting up, wide awake. Matthew looked at her with concern, “Wifey, why don’t you sleep a little longer? Did we wake you up by opening the door?”
Listening to how Matthew called her 'wifey', Lucy blushed in embarrassment. She shook her head and said, “No, it’s not that. The door wasn’t that loud.
“By the way, have you two finished your discussion?”
Before Matthew could respond, Lucy interrupted him by asking him a question first. To be frank, she did not have any memories with Matthew at the moment.
Perhaps, she would slowly regain her memories in the future, but she was still not used to Matthew’s attitude toward her. Whether it be his concern for her or him calling her ‘wifey’, it just made her uncomfortable. It was not that she disliked it, but it just made her feel shy.
Unaware of his wife’s thoughts, Matthew just sensed her embarrassment. Perhaps she was rejecting his term of endearment because she did not like him very much.
His expression darkened a little, but he quickly recomposed himself. Although his previous efforts seemed to have been reset, he had no problem starting over.
After quietly reassuring himself in his mind, he calmly said to Lucy, “Yup, we’re done.
“But we need your help. Lulu, can you follow everything I tell you to do?”
