Chapter 10 - Papa and Mama Should Not Fight (2)

It was Senna’s face. She slept soundly ever so peacefully.

John was dreaming in a state of euphoria. His eyes closed several times, repeatedly flickering them open. He’d even slapped his cheeks hard, but still her face did not disappear.

So… was this not a dream?

John reached out his hand carefully and gently touched her cheeks. It was warm, like the body temperature of a living person. Beside her was Joshua who was dead asleep. The two hugged each other tightly. He stared at his two beloved people, and swept his hands through Senna’s disheveled hair. It had been a while since he’d last seen her sleeping face.

Then, the morning sun rose and beamed its sunlight through the windows, dying Josh’s blonde a more golden color. John smiled at the sight of it.

But… what was going on? Had Senna come back to life?

“……!”

John quickly pulled his hands back and sighed.

Did he feel lonely? Was that it? Is that why he brought this woman home? And… why does he feel strange at the mere sight of her?

Unable to think clearly, John left the room.

He’ll never admit to this strange feelings.

Even if this beggar looked like Senna.
