“Okay… Thank you.”
Valerie did feel a bit tired.
From the beginning until now, she hasn’t moved her butt for three hours.
I was about to get numb.
Derek watched as she took the medicine from his hand. He sat back in his seat and began to actively tidy up the desk.
“Val, if you want, you can call me Derek.”
While organizing the books. Derek suddenly asked Valerie softly.
“Huh? I’m fine, are you okay?”
Thinking about Derek’s indifferent attitude toward others in school, she hesitated a bit.
“Im fine, after all, it was me who suggested it. You can call me Derek if you want.”
Rarely, Derek turned his head and faced Valerie with a faint smile.
After taking a shower, he was devoid of the chill he had during the day, and this smile made Valerie widen her eyes.
Sure enough, sure enough.
She now understands why her colleagues who worked with her in the past considered him the best husband candidate.
She puckered her lips, feeling a slightly bitter taste of medicine in her mouth.
Derek finished packing up and turned to Valerie, who seemed a bit lost in thought.
“Val, the fruits that old lady gave you… I thought they were on the coffee table at home today, so I took one. But grandpa told me that these were brought by you.”
I wanted to say sorry to you, I ate one.
Valerie, who was still daydreaming, suddenly jolted when she heard the word “fruit“. Her expression could be described as complex and ever–changing.
“It’s okay! Everyone can eat! Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to finish so much, and it would just go bad if left untouched.”
Valerie responded with a gentle smile, realizing that Derek’s thoughts were completely different from her own.
Since yesterday, he has already taken care of me a lot.
“Thank you, Derek, for taking care of me and sorry for causing you trouble.”
“Alright, no need to be so polite. You go lie down and sleep. I’ll turn off the lights for you. Do you need a night light?”
Valerie shook her head.
“No need for a night light, Derek. You should also go to bed soon. You have to go to school tomorrow.
Valerie snuggled into the still chilly blanket, giving a slight shiver. She smiled and bid Derek goodnight before quickly drifting off to sleep.
Completely unaware of the sound of the car coming to the Fisher family’s doorstep, as well as the faint voices that could be heard…
“Just this little girl?… The one from the Horton family?… She looks adorable… It’s her brother…”
In a daze, the sound of conversation came through.
Valerie, who had slept for a night, struggled to open her sticky eyelids.
She turned her head and looked toward the source of the sound.
His eyes were blurred.
“Oops, sorry sorry, I woke you up.”
Samantha, who was talking to Ramona in the room, noticed a rustling sound coming from the bed.
I walked apologetically toward the bedside and knelt down in front of Valerie.
Valerie was completely awake now.
She looked at Samantha, who was smiling, in a daze, and her puzzled eyes turned to Ramona.
“Valerie, sorry for waking you up. Do you want to go back to sleep for a while?”
Valerie looked at the small alarm clock on the bedside table and realized that perhaps she had lost her mind and taken medication yesterday, as she had slept until after eight o’clock.
She quickly shook her head and got up from the bed.
Carefully and cautiously, he looked toward Samantha.
Samantha was not reserved at all; she went straight up and hugged Valerie.
In her forties, she looked at Valerie
