As the morning sun kissed the snow-dotted building of BB Hotels, Mai woke up to find Aiden dressed in a white morning robe, waiting for her.
He had a book in hand as he sat by the window, the morning light casting a warm glow upon his features.
Rubbing the sleep from her eyes, Mai glanced around the room before her gaze settled on Aiden. "Morning," she muttered, her voice still heavy with drowsiness.
"Good morning," Aiden replied, flashing her a smile before returning his attention to the book in his hand.
Just as Mai was about to ask Aiden what he was reading, there was a sudden knock on the door, interrupting their quiet morning.
There was a subtle pause between the two until Aiden rose from his seat and made his way to the door, opening it to reveal a familiar face standing in the hallway.
Upon seeing this figure Aiden was shocked, as memories instantly flooded back into his mind.
"There's dust on the counter, clean it again!"
