"I don't know what happened today. There were no fruits downstairs, so I went to a slightly farther supermarket to buy them. But the car broke down on the way, so I got back now," he said with a hint of helplessness.

...

A strong scent of perfume hit me as he got closer to me.

I never wear perfume.

I was far away from Alan. "What's that smell on you?"

Alan's expression was unnatural. And he smiled to cover it up. "Maybe it's because I was too close to the lady boss when I bought the fruit. She was wearing perfume."

I laughed at myself.

I couldn't believe that Alan had lied to me and he was already so skilled at it.

I looked at the time on my phone. I felt bitter.

Alan was very punctual.

He said it was two hours. It's two hours.

"Go take a shower, I'll go to sleep first."

I pushed away Alan, who wanted to hug me. And I tried to hold back the urge to vomit, got up, and went back to my room.

I couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

After Alan finished taking a bath, he hugged me from behind and said, "Honey, it's been a long time since we..."

His hands caressed my skin gently.

He wanted to have sex, but I coldly rejected him.

"I'm too tired. I want to sleep."
