Caroline slowly opened her sleepy eyes and found herself in the motel room. Startled, she looked around but couldn't find anyone there.
'Did he bring me here?'
'Did I just doze off in his arms?'
She had no recollection of what had happened in the jetty afterward. The last thing she remembered was looking into his magical eyes before he lulled her to sleep.
Grabbing her forehead in her palm, she groaned. 'Uggghhhh… Why did he have to be there when I was so miserable?'
She took a deep breath and walked toward the washroom to clean her face. Even though Morpheous had wiped her face and mouth, the vomit's weird stench nauseated her.
She washed her face and brushed her teeth as well, and while she was wiping her face dry, her stomach grumbled.
'Dang it! Have I missed lunch?'
She wondered and came out to check the time---ten minutes past five.
'How could I sleep so much?'
