Dawn arrived, and Ariana, wrapped in a blanket, went to the kitchen to grab some sandwiches and milk. She then made her way back to the balcony to watch the sunrise.

Gradually, her eyelids grew heavier. She just covered herself with the blanket and drifted into slumber under the rising sun.

Unknown to her, Theodore had been silently observing her from behind the flower rack on the adjacent balcony!

By the time Ariana woke up, the sun was already high in the sky. Sunbeams filtered through the glass window and curtains, flooding the entire room. Ariana squinted her eyes against the glare of the sunlight, and buried her head deeper into the soft pillow.

Suddenly, she realized something and was startled. How come she found herself in this bed?

With a confused look on her face, Ariana stared at the messy quilt. She was lying on the bed in her dirty clothes. How did this happen?

As far as she remembered, she was lying on the rocking chair on the balcony, admiring the beautiful daybreak. She fell asleep there.

Did she get cold at some point and go back to the bedroom half asleep?

Ariana rubbed her messy hair in confusion. She must have gone back to bed by herself. This had happened before anyway. However, today, she was too tired to think clearly because she had stayed up late.

Ariana eventually pushed these thoughts at the back of her mind and finally got out of bed. She took a shower and changed into comfortable casual clothes. Then, she turned on her phone.

She checked the time and found out that it was already pass twelve o'clock. Ariana pursed her lips unconsciously, waiting for her phone to turn on. She felt nervous and was waiting for something.

To her disappointment, she didn't receive the message she was expecting. There were only a few mass messages about work and a private message from Sarah.

With a sigh, Ariana clicked on the message from Sarah, which read, "Babe! I have finished my work. I will fly back to Eleymond tomorrow morning."

A broad smile appeared on Ariana’s face as she read the message. She was overjoyed at the thought that Sarah would finally be back.

After reading Sarah's message, Ariana clicked on the chatting interface with Theodore. There was no new message. After last night, he really didn't text her.

Ariana threw away her phone. She was a little angry. Was Theodore really going to cut her off?

She really wanted to call him and let him know how mad she was. It was annoying to wait for him like this.

Ariana was about to lose her mind when she received another message from Sarah.

"Are you there, my sweetheart? Why don't you reply my message? I'll be back tomorrow!"

She replied immediately, "I'm here! I'll pick you up at the airport tomorrow!"
