Chapter 191 Learn to Let Go of Yourself
Alan also saw Rose and nodded at her, "Hello, Ms. Rose."
"Mr. Way, good evening." Rose greeted him.
Alan carried Nora to the bed and put her down, covered her with the blanket, and said with concern, "Have a good rest. Let me know if you feel unwell. I'll get the doctor."
"No need. I'm fine." Nora thought that Alan made a fuss. It was just a minor injury. "I'm not so weak."
"As Mrs. Way, you must take good care of yourself." Alan was rarely serious.
The current him was completely different from the one who was always laughing and joking, which made Nora feel that she was not used to it.
"You stay away from me." Nora could feel his hot breath.
Such close contact made her uncomfortable. After all, except for that light kiss at the wedding when they were married, they hadn't even held hands.
"We're a couple. Ms. Rose can understand it." Alan smiled softly.
Nora looked at him and seemed to signal that they didn't have to pretend to be in love in front of her best friend.
Last time in a fast food restaurant, Rose had seen him with his girlfriend.
"You're not spending time with your girlfriend today?" Nora changed the subject to let him know that there was no secret between her and Rose.
"I have no girlfriend long ago." Alan was frank enough to admit it. The last time they made trouble in the fast food restaurant and he broke up with his girlfriend.
"Mr. Way, you are chasing the next woman, right?" Nora had met several of his girlfriends.
"Mrs. Way, I am not interested in playing through life anymore. I want to return to my family and be a good husband." Alan kept smiling and no one knew whether his words were true or false.
But in Nora's eyes, it was definitely false, "Mr. Way, come on."
"Then Mrs. Way, let's wait and see." Alan got up from the edge of the bed and put his hands in his pockets, "You guys chat. I'm going to take a shower."
Alan turned to Rose who was standing not far away, "Ms. Rose, please take care of Nora tonight. Call me if you need anything. I'll sleep in the opposite room."
"Mr. Way, don't worry. I will take good care of Nora." Rose nodded.
Alan took one more look at Nora and then left.
After the door was closed, Nora heaved a sigh of relief. Rose also walked over, "Alan is quite concerned about you. It is just a minor injury. But he is so nervous. Maybe he likes you?"
"He likes me?" Nora snorted incredulously, "Rose, what are you thinking? He, a playboy, will like me? He likes me while he can like many other women. This kind of love is so cheap. Do you want it?"
Rose was silenced by Nora and felt that what Nora said was reasonable.
"Alright. It's bedtime." Nora was about to change into her pajamas. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Rose lifted the blanket and went to bed. It was many years ago that they lay in the same bed.
Now that they were lying together, those school days came back to their mind.
They were both lucky to be each other's most trusted person, and that they loved each other at all times.
"Rose, thanks for having you with me."
"Nora, thanks for having you with me."
This night, they held hands and stayed with each other.
In the middle of the night, Nora was awakened by a nightmare. She screamed and sat up violently in a cold sweat, breathing heavily.
"Nora, did you have a nightmare?" Rose woke up and sat up to pat her back.
"I dreamed about that fire again. This time, it is more real than before. I could feel the fire burning my skin ..." Nora reached around her body as if it were burning her skin, "How much painful do you think he would have been... But I couldn't save him, just watching him burned to ash."
She grabbed Rose tightly, "Rose, he must not forgive me. That's why it's so hard for me to forget the fire. I dream about it over and over again, which reminds me how selfish I am!"
"That's not the case. That fire is too traumatic for you. In fact, I will also dream about that day." Rose held her shoulders, "It's all just fate. Don't blame yourself too much."
"This time, I heard him say in my dream that he would never forgive me. He would never forgive me ..." Nora looked down and buried her face in the palms of her hands.
"He was so good to you. How could he say such words to you? You must have heard wrong." Rose helped Nora back to bed, "You just think too much. Let go of yourself. Let's count sheep together. One sheep, two sheep..."
Nora clung to Rose, listening to her gentle voice, and gradually relaxed herself ...
Fortunately, today was the weekend. Rose had thought that she could sleep with Nora for a longer time. But Nora got up at seven and went to the gym to run.
Rose was relieved to see Nora listening to music and running on the treadmill. So, she went to the kitchen to help Freya prepare breakfast.
"Ms. Rose, you can't do that." Freya didn't dare to let Rose do this, "Ms. Nora will criticize me if she sees it."
"Then I'll take out the breakfast, okay?" Rose took the porridge out.
Nora and Alan come to the dining room at the right time. Alan looked at Nora, "Are you okay?"
"I am fine." Nora hadn't slept well last night. So, her face was a little pale. But she was in good spirits.
That was Nora. She could hide herself well during the day. But at night, when she was alone, all the loneliness surged and she couldn't remain calm anymore. So, she broke down and vented. After venting, she would become the young lady of the Cooper family who amazed others again during the day.
Rose handed them the porridge. Alan said, "Thank you, Ms. Rose."
"Don't mention it, Mr. Way. I even stay and have breakfast here for free." Rose put on a self-mocking smile.
"You are Nora's best friend. Just make yourself feel at home. I would very much like you to come here frequently in the future. Nora will smile more when she is with you." Alan found this, and gazed softly at Nora, "Honey, you should smile more. You are beautiful while smiling."
Nora took a mouthful of porridge and choked on what Alan said.
Alan hastily pulled a tissue and gave it to her, patting her back, "Eat slowly."
"Why are you talking nonsense?" Nora glared at him, "You don't want me to enjoy my breakfast, do you?"
"I didn't talk nonsense. You're my wife, and my honey." Alan looked aggrieved, "Ms. Rose, please testify on behalf of me."
"Alan, what is wrong with you?" Nora was confused. In addition to calling her honey in public, he always called her Nora in private.
