The next day, Amelia again woke up on David's bed, with no David beside her. Amelia did not remember when she fell asleep. Looks like he fell asleep in the car when he got home from dinner last night. However, upon seeing her, she was shocked and immediately hugged her own body. She no longer wore the short pink dress she wore yesterday. She was wearing a short nightgown.
Amelia didn't remember when she changed the clothes or maybe someone else changed them?
Amelia pulled out a blanket to wrap herself up. Then he rushed out of the room. He's not really out. He just opened the door and peeked at the situation from there.
David who was preparing food smiled amusedly seeing Amelia just popping her head. Not only the head, he also saw a blanket near Amelia. That woman must have worn it.
"Morning," said David with a friendly smile.
"Pa-morning," Amelia replied with a stammer. Now he'll see David every morning. He's not used to it.
"What's wrong? Come outside! Shouldn't we have breakfast?" David moved a finger towards her. He hinted Amelia to approach him.
Amelia's confused. She did not feel comfortable to go out with her blanket, but she felt more uncomfortable to go out without it, wearing only a short sleep dress. Moreover, he still had an unanswered puzzle. He was also not sure if he was worth asking that.
"What-me-who changes-my clothes-yesterday-night," asked Amelia. Finally he asked the opposite question.
David laughing. "Of course, no" he answered lightly.
Amelia knew that. It was impossible for her to change her own clothes, whereas she remembered that she had fallen asleep in the car and did not remember the next story. Actually what Amelia wanted to ask was ….
"Am I replacing you?" david said with a mischievous smile. "That's what you're supposed to ask." David blinked one eye to tease Amelia.
Ah, Amelia started pounding. He felt tense as if his fate had been at stake. He looked down and showed his innocent attitude. "So ... Did you replace my clothes?" ask Amelia lirih.
Amelia narrowed her eyes. For some reason, he began to feel annoyed that David was teasing him. Though the temptation was made so that he felt more comfortable.
Although many questions Amelia wanted to ask were evasive, the truth would not be darted from the evidence. Amelia gave up because the answer was already determined.
"Yes, it's me" David admitted. "But why are you being so embarrassed? There's only me here. So get out of your blanket and let's have a nice breakfast."
David's right. Besides, this isn't the first time David's seen his body as vulgar. Amelia has been living with David. That means David will often see himself well. Even two nights ago, he waited for David without feeling ashamed. So why should Amelia be ashamed now?
Eventually Amelia took off her blanket.
David's right. There is only David. So why should Amelia feel uncomfortable because of the blanket?
Amelia walked slowly and sighed many times. After being near David, he looked up and scratched his smile as if he was fine.
"Oh, yeah. I hear it's not good for women to wear bras while sleeping. So I took that off too."
Both of Amelia's eyes widened. He immediately hugged his own chest. Then slowly he stretched his arms and lowered his gaze to confirm the truth.
That's right …. Amelia was desperate.
