Rena was still awake. She was sitting on the carpet in her pajamas, her long hair hanging loosely around her shoulders. Several documents were scattered in front of her on the coffee table.

As soon as Waylen arrived, she put them away.

“Hungry? I've prepared something for you.”

Like clockwork, Waylen shrugged off his coat, threw it on the sofa, and leaned over to kiss her.

He kissed her for a long time. Just as Rena was starting to get worked up, he pulled away and said in a hoarse voice, "I'll take a shower first, and then I'll eat.”

Rena considerately picked out some pajamas for him. When he came out of the bathroom in a bathrobe, she took his temperature again.

Fortunately, his temperature wasn't too high this time around.

“Drink a lot of water tonight and you should be fine tomorrow," Rena said with a smile, waving the thermometer in front of him.

Waylen smiled back at her. He thoroughly enjoyed her taking care of him. While munching on the food she prepared for him, he suddenly asked, "Did you ever take care of Harold like this?"

Rena didn't expect that he'd ask such a question.

But before she could say anything, Waylen spoke again.

“Never mind. I was just curious."

Rena didn't feel the need to hide anything from him, so she answered honestly, “When two people are together, they naturally need to take care of each other.”

“What about after breaking up?" Waylen pressed.

Resting her chin on one palm, Rena gently touched his nose with the other hand.

He was so handsome!

“If a couple breaks up, of course they don't need to care about each other anymore."

She thought for a while and added, “In fact, it's better if they cut all contact with each other."

Rena thought that this was the answer that Waylen wanted, and she had answered honestly. Unexpectedly, Waylen didn't seem too happy. He simply frowned and said nothing.

Later that evening, when they were in bed, Waylen only kissed her for a little while. He didn't do anything else.

Although she was a Little disappointed, Rena figured he was probably too tired to have sex with her.

But early the next morning, he went for a run.
