Nostalgic Promise

Rudy watched Lucy enter and leave Rebecca's room with clothes in her hands to go to the bathroom to take a bath.

Once he heard the sound of the bathroom door being locked, he slowly walked towards Rebecca's room to continue what he was doing before Lucy interrupted them.

He saw Rebecca sleeping on the bed with her eyes closed, although he was aware that she was simply pretending to be asleep as she had been wide awake and active a few minutes ago.

He walked to the bed and crouched down to level up with the bed. Then, he moved his face close to Rebecca's ears and whispered,

"Are you sure you want to be so defenseless in front of me after what we just did?"

Rebecca smiled slightly and opened her eyes, saying, "I have always been defenseless in front of you, and I know you wouldn't do anything to me."

Rudy kissed Rebecca on her cheek and said, "Are we going to continue?"

"No. Your five minutes have long passed, and we have to learn to stay loyal to our commitments, right?"
