I didn't call her angrily to question her like I did in the past. Instead, I washed up, turned off the lights, and went to sleep. It's strange to say, in the past, when I encountered such a thing, I would definitely be upset and unable to sleep all night, but this time I slept soundly. Until the middle of the night, the glaring light woke me up.

I opened my eyes and saw Cheryl standing in front of me, staring at me quietly, with resentment in her eyes, as if I shouldn't fall asleep. Yes, in the past, I would definitely call her immediately to question her and wait for her all night, but I didn't do that this time.

She shouldn't be angry about this, right?

"Why did you go to bed so early today?" Cheryl asked, staring at me.

"I'm tired from work and very sleepy." I explained with my eyes narrowed.

" You..." Cheryl hesitated several times, and I didn't know what she wanted to say. I simply turned around and continued to sleep, mumbling: "You came back so late, you must be tired, go to bed early."

She stood behind me for a long time, walking back and forth for a long time. I didn't say a word. Until she left, I looked at the time, it was already two o'clock. She stood behind me for nearly two hours, what did she want to express? She must be sick!

In the past, she always looked at me with a cold and arrogant face and got angry. At first she was willing to explain, but later she was too lazy to explain, just closed the door and went to sleep, leaving me alone in the living room to complain. Then she sneered at me the next day: "Do you know that you looked ugly and embarrassed last night, like a shrew!"

In the morning, I woke up. I opened the door facing Cheryl almost at the same time. I looked at her and wanted to turn around and leave, but Cheryl held me back: "I didn't mean to break the appointment last night. You don't know that Lawrence was beaten up by his ex-girlfriend and her people last night. The situation is very serious. I have to go and see."

I can't remember the last time she took the initiative to explain. I looked at her calmly: "Oh, okay, I know."

Just as I turned around, Cheryl grabbed my hand again. I looked back at her, and her eyes were full of resentment, as if she was telling me her difficulties and blaming me for not being considerate enough.

I was surprisingly calm and said, "I believe you. By the way, I'm busy at work today and have to go to the company early. I don't have time to make breakfast for you at home. Just eat whatever you want."

After that, I went to wash up. When I finished washing up, Cheryl was still standing there, like a wooden stake. I walked past her and went to the bedroom to get dressed. At this time, there was a heavy sound of closing the door outside. When I changed my clothes and went outside, Cheryl was no longer at home.
