Guilt, self–blame, and sympathy gripped Sheena’s heart.
She decided to let him be.
Sheena let out a long sigh, gently patting the arm that Elliot wrapped around her waist, trying to comfort him.
“I’m not going anywhere. I will never leave you.
She turned around, and Elliot nestled into her embrace, burying his face in her waist, his voice incredibly soft as he cooed, “Can you stay withtonight? Don’t leave me…
“Okay. From tonight onward, I’ll always be with you and put you to bed, alright?” She rubbed his short, soft hair.
Elliot nodded gently.
Sheena took out the robe hidden under the pillow and helped him put it on.
“It’s winter, and your body has just recovered a bit. It’s better not to sleep naked. You might catch a

Elliot curled up contentedly in her arms, smelling the pleasant fragrance from her neck.
The restlessness and unease in his heart gradually went away.
Sheena turned off the bedside lamp, holding him in her arms as she gradually fell asleep.
However, just as she dozed off, she was awakened by the muffled sobbing next to her.
In the dim light, she could vaguely see Elliot, lowering his head, sleeping on her arm.
Curious, she touched Elliot’s face and unexpectedly felt the tears on his long eyelashes.
“Eli? Why are you feeling sad again?”
Elliot hugged her even tighter, his voice thick with nasal tones, murmuring, “Nana, I don’t know how those lip prints got on my body. I really think I’m disgusting, but please don’t reject me…”
“So, that’s what he’s troubled by,‘ Sheena mused.
Discovering his vulnerability, Sheena felt a twinge of guilt. She wanted to tell him the truth but did. not know how to start.
Would he get furious if he found out he had been pranked?
After scontemplation, Sheena lightly patted his back with her palm, soothing his melancholy mood.
“How could I not want you? Of course I’d want you. Besides you, I don’t want any other man in my life. You’ll always be my one and only.”

Sheena gently kissed his eyes, following his earlier example, patiently kissing away the tears on hist long lashes.
Elliot quietly enjoyed her love, yet his heart remained somewhat uneasy.
“If what happened tonight bothers you, you can hitor scold me. I’ll accept any punishment from you. But please, no more silent treatment… It’s really hard to bear.”

“You have the nerve to say that? Who was the one threatening to call off the engagement last time, saying you didn’t loveanymore, tired of me, and started givingthe silent treatment? And now, who immediately ignoredfor two days after the injection of the blue serum?”
Elliot was speechless.

He spoke softly, sounding a bit aggrieved, “Didn’t we agree not to bring up old issues?”
Sheena chuckled, her sympathy for him was quickly replaced by the frustration of these past few days.
Love was love, but it did not stop her from keeping a mental score.
“So, you’re allowed to bring up old issues and throw a tantrum, but I can’t mention anything? I can let go of the engagement incident, but can the silent treatment a couple of days ago be considered an old issue? It’s still recent!”
Elliot buried his head under the blanket, unable to argue.
The more Sheena thought about it, the angrier she became.
He had been sick for a while, and she had not dared to dwell on those things that had made her feel suffocated.
Now that he was much better, perhaps it was tto settle the score.
If she did not straighten him out a bit, she might not sleep well tonight.

Elliot was at a loss for words.
