"I don't want to lose you, I don't want to be away from you anymore."
Devan kept saying things like that even though he didn't get a reply from Claire.
"So don't ask me to leave again, okay?"
Don't get any response, Devan just kept quiet while waiting patiently for the woman in his arms to reply.
However, until a few minutes had passed, there was neither a sound nor the slightest movement from Claire which made Devan frown.
"Anna," he called, somehow preferring that name to 'Claire'.
"Anna, you heard me right?" asked Devan again.
"Are you still mad at me?"
"I'm sorry," he added, but the same thing happened. The woman did not respond either.
With a very slow movement, Devan tried to look at Claire on his shoulder.
And at the same time, a small smile appeared on his lips. No wonder there was no answer, the woman was asleep and even looked very sound.
