He never knew that he could be so flustered just by hearing her

“Are you feeling better?” asked Grace, not caring that his hug was
hurting her. All she cared about was what was wrong with him.
However, it did seem that his trembling was subsiding. It was not
as serious now.
“Better…” Jason murmured, still holding her.

“By the way, what was the matter with you just now?” she asked.
She would feel troubled if she did not know why.

probably just a bad dream. I woke up with a start, and my body.
couldn’t help trembling because of the bad dream.”
Grace’s eyes widened in surprise. They both had dreams tonight.
However, she was surprised that he was trembling with fear from

Grace.
Jason immediately did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Are your
treating me like a child?”
“I think kids fall asleep easily this way. We’re just trying it anyway. Maybe it’ll make you sleepy? Why don’t you close
your eyes?”
He hesitated for a moment, then slowly closed his eyes like she
told him to.
