The man parted her messy hair and said in a laid-back tone, "Tell you a shortcut."
Sabrina said, "What... What shortcut?"
"If you served me well, maybe I alone can help you clear off the debt you owe me."
Sabrina was speechless.
Before she regained her senses, she saw the man raise his hand to switch off the wall light instead. The man then wrapped his arm around her again and said in a relaxed manner, "Sleep!"
Sabrina had no choice but to carefully lay on his chest, but she was hesitant to sleep.
She wanted to get up to see how her daughter, Aino, was sleeping, but before she could get up, the man lifted his leg and pinned her down. She could not move.
She could only nestle in his arms, not daring to breathe too loudly.
Sabrina could only pray now that she could hear when her daughter woke up and cried because she could not find her mother.
Perhaps because she was too exhausted, perhaps because she was missing her daughter, Sabrina did not even know how she fell asleep in the end.
Her breath became even as she lay in Sebastian's arms.
It may be because it was too cold as Sebastian's blanket was very thin, slowly, Sabrina began to move closer to the man. Later on, her whole body was bent over his body. Sabrina had a long cylindrical bolster when she was at Ciarrai County. Every time she slept, she was used to sleeping on her side, and her legs would cross over the bolster. She always felt safe when she slept like that.
However, she has no bolster now. In her sleep, she unknowingly took Sebastian's leg as a bolster. Both her legs just wrapped around his leg like a vine.
Sabrina slept soundly, but Sebastian could not sleep for a long time.
He had searched for her for six years!
