My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 390

"I'm going to wash up!" I got up and went to the bathroom.

Winter was growing colder with each passing day. The sky looked foggy outside, and the water was ice cold. I turned on the tap and waited for it to warm up.

Hendrix followed behind shortly after. He had dark circles under his eyes; probably from a lack of sleep.

I glanced at him. "What time did you sleep last night?"

He yawned and replied, "Two!"

That was late!

It was only seven in the morning, he obviously did not get enough sleep. "Do you want to lie down for a while longer?"

He hugged me from the back and said half-jokingly, "Josiah said that I should follow you around 24/7."

What did he mean by that?

"So, you wash and I'll shower!"

I looked at him blankly, confused about what he meant.

When I realized what he meant, I couldn't help but feel stunned by his behavior. I looked away for a while, pursed my lips, and said, "Go shower first, I'll head out!"

He pulled me closer and asked, "Why are you hiding? Haven't you seen it?"

I...

I bit my lips again. "Wash up," he said.

Watching him turn the faucet on, I paused and said, "Hendrix, take some time off and take me to the doctor!"

His eyes stared right into me as he said. "Finally! I've gotten through to you!"

I nodded. "I heard that it's not safe to take too many sleeping pills."
