I saw the bedroom door was opened before I could try to come up with a conclusion. That man was soaked and went straight into the bathroom without caring to even glance at me. Then, it was followed by the sound of running water.
Once he came back, I couldn't sleep anymore. Therefore, I got up and put on my clothes, I took out his pajamas from the closet and placed them at the bathroom door before I went out to the balcony.
Back then was the monsoon season, and it was drizzling outside. As the sky was getting darker, the sound of raindrops that was hitting the roof could be heard faintly as well.
As soon as I heard some noise behind me, I looked back and saw Hendrix came out of the bathroom. He had a bath towel wrapping his lower body. Drops of water from his dripping wet hair flowed along his muscular body. That was what I called, a man's charm.
He probably noticed that I was staring at him. When he looked at me, he frowned slightly and said, "Come here!" Again, he said it in an emotionless tone.
As usual, I was obedient. When I went up to him, he threw the towel in his hand to me, and said in a low voice, "Wipe for me."
He had always been like this and I had already gotten used to it. Seeing him sitting on the edge of the bed, I climbed onto the bed and half-kneeled behind him as I wiped his hair.
"Tomorrow is Grandpa's funeral. We need to go to the old villa as early as possible." I wasn't intending to try to have a conversation with him. Since he only thought about Andrea, he would have forgotten about it if I didn't mention it.
"Alright!" He replied, and that was it.
Knowing how much he refused to talk to me, I didn't want to say further. Finally, after drying his hair, I laid on the bed again and got ready to sleep.
Perhaps it was because I was pregnant, I got sleepy easily. Hendrix usually stayed in the study room until midnight after his bath. However tonight, he laid down on the bed after changing into his pajamas.
Although it was strange, I didn't want to ask any more questions. Suddenly, he put his arms around me and pulled me into his chest, and then kissed me softly.
I was stunned for a moment when he ripped off the pajamas I was wearing. I held onto his arms which was exploring around my body and lifted my chin to look at him, as I did not know what to do.
"Hendrix, I..."
