After a good night's rest, Alex woke up the next day, still in Latifa's embrace.
Fortunately, today was a holiday and there were no classes. He would have loved to stay asleep to hold her, but a light cough reached his ears.
"How long do you plan to hold Latifa, you rascal?" Lumi asked with her hands resting on her hips.
Left with no choice, Alex reluctantly left the bed.
"Please wash your face, Alex," Lotte said with a smile. "Breakfast is ready, so you can eat first."
"Okay." Alex nodded. "Thanks, Lotte."
The young man then glanced at the sleeping fox lady on the bed before going to the washroom to freshen up a bit.
He could still vaguely recall the dream he had of Latifa and him exchanging a kiss after going on a date.
Although he understood that going out on a date with her right now would be difficult—especially with Lumi always hounding him at every opportunity—he wished that he and Latifa would be able to take that next step in their relationship soon.
