No one could tell when he fell asleep. But on January 1, Mark woke up unexpectedly early.
Natalie specially replaced the newly bought blackout curtains so that she couldn't see anything in the room. She curled up and slept soundly.
Mark reached for the tablet on the bedside table and turned on the screen. With the help of the light, he could see the smooth back. The long hair was scattered, some of it was right next to his hand. Between the black and white, there were faint traces of fallen red plum blossoms.
Her mind was in a trance, and Mark wanted to touch her, but stopped the moment he was close. She sat up and pulled the quilt up to cover the body of the sleeping beauty.
Natalie came back specially to spend the New Year's Eve with her. The moment he opened the door and saw her, Mark understood her obvious feelings.
