The next day, when Naomi opened her eyes, Nelson stretched out his hand and grazed her nose.
"Baby boo, the sun is up, do you not want to get up already?"
Naomi rubbed her eyes and replied, "It's already past nine o'clock? Why didn't you wake me up?!"
Nelson held his forehead and said, "I tried to wake you up thrice, but you said you wanted to sleep more!"
Naomi was speechless.
She hurriedly got up and changed her clothes. She said, "I've told Auntie Cindy that I would be at Master Clarke's for three days. If I don't go to work today, I'll be dead!"
"Don't be in such a rush!" Nelson reached out to hold her.
"Is your body alright?"
Naomi had already forgotten about that matter. Now that he mentioned it, she immediately felt a faint pain in some parts of her body.
She felt her cheeks turning hot and replied, "I'm fine!"
"I've prepared your clothes and squeezed the toothpaste for you. I've also sent a message to your superior in the morning, saying that you will be late to work for an hour. You should wash your face, change your clothes and come out to have breakfast, and then I will send you to work on my way. You won't be late to work!"
Naomi looked at him in surprise and said, "You've already arranged everything?"
"What do you think?"
She suddenly had no idea what to do. Amos had always told her that girls needed to be independent. Therefore, ever since she was young, she had to do many things by herself.
Except for Eudora, no one else had ever arranged so many things for her. She was also used to preparing everything by herself.
Now that someone had helped her to arrange everything, she felt overjoyed for some reason. It turned out that this is what it felt like to be loved!
It was different from the love from her parents and the affection between siblings. It was the love of one's other half, the one who would accompany her for the rest of her life.
Naomi, who had never thought of marriage, suddenly looked forward to it after remembering Nelson's marriage proposal.
"Naomi?" Nelson's voice rang and she finally came back to her senses.
"Oh, okay!" After that, she went into the bathroom.
When she came out, Nelson had made breakfast. It suited her taste and was not as salty as the dish yesterday.
She ate the breakfast contentedly, and then went out with Nelson.
"Your office is just on the way to mine, therefore I'll send you there."
Naomi asked in surprise, "You're going to the company today? Your body..."
"I'm fine! Oh, I won't come back here again tonight!"
"Ah..." Not knowing what was wrong with herself, Naomi suddenly felt disappointed. She had only stayed in the apartment for three days, but she had already regarded this place as their cozy spot.
She had initially thought that it would have become their permanent place to stay in, but now she realized that it might have just been their temporary shelter.
Nelson noticed that she had lowered her head.
So, he said again, "What's wrong? Are you reluctant to part with me?"
Naomi shook her head in denial, "No." "It doesn't matter if you feel that way! Truth be told, I don't want to part with you either!" Nelson held her hand.
"This place holds the same significance in my heart as it does in yours. In the future, when we get married, we can move in here!"
Naomi's mood finally improved a little and said, "Alright!"
When they arrived at Naomi's company, she got out of the car and left. Nelson, who was sitting in the car, looked at her back as she walked away, and the corners of his mouth gradually curved into a smile.
One that perhaps, even he himself was not aware of.
