She looked up, her eyes still laced with sleepiness
“Sanford, you’re awake!”
His reply came tinged with a touch of regret. “Did I wake you up? You seem to be a Light sleeper,
huh?”
“I was just concerned about you,” Maggie instinctively replied.
As the last word left her lips, she caught the glimmer of a smile in Sanford’s eyes, making her feel
uneasy.
“Well, I suppose I do wake up easily,” she quickly added, her tone betraying a sense of dishonesty.
Sanford was in a cheerful mood and decided not to challenge her. He lifted the quilt, preparing to get
out of bed.
But Maggie quickly intervened, saying, “Please don’t get out of bed. Let me fetch what you need.”
Looking at her, Sanford quipped, “Well, I do need to use the bathroom. Are you still up for assisting

Sanford placed his hand on her shoulder and, with her aid, made his way into the bathroom.
Once they stood in front of the toilet, Maggie hesitated and asked, “Um, should I step out?”
“I thought you would help me.” Sanford smirked mischievously.
Puzzled, Maggie asked, “What do you mean?”
“Help me take off my trousers.”
Maggie was left speechless.
