"Rick, I have to go…"
Maya tried to get out of bed while being hugged by an "unconscious" Rick.
Rick kept his eyes closed and hugged Maya even tighter, pretending to sleep…
Maya ran a hand over his head, feeling his brown hair with her fingers, while admiring his unshaven face. The beard was barely enough to hide his youthful features… Which reminded her that he was much younger than her. Due to his maturity, it was hard to remember that he was barely in his twenties… This made her blush, and she quickly urged him to get up again…
"Seriously, Rick… I have to open the clinic. Today I'm giving your sister a practical class, and didn't you promise to go have breakfast with your mother?"
Rick opened his eyes, remembering that he also had a lot to do, and hurriedly got up…
It had been a few days since he sent the signal and also told Maya the truth. Since then, his relationship with her had changed considerably, and the two were now lovers…
