Friday night

Dylan and Yue took the 7.35 pm flight from Miami and landed in Washington DC at 10.14 pm. The flight was smooth and on time.

They have decided to stay at a Hilton near the airport because that will make it easier for them to leave early on Monday morning; hence, they are in the room by 11 pm.

Since it's late and Yue is tired, exhausted really, Dylan decides to keep his desires at bay and focus on the wellbeing of his beloved señorita, who is showering and getting ready for bed

Since it's late and Yue is tired, exhausted really, Dylan decides to keep his desires at bay and focus on the wellbeing of his beloved señorita, who is showering and getting ready for bed. Meanwhile, Dylan is choosing some food for breakfast; his wish is to order room service and hang out indoors-paint leisurely, truth be told-all morning. He finishes marking the items on the menu and hangs it outside the door to be picked up by the hotel staff.

When Yue finishes showering, it's Dylan's turn to remove the airplane clothes and germs. He opens the bathroom door and can hardly see his dear wife brushing her teeth in the foggy air.

"Cookie! You're gonna scald your skin one of these days!" Dylan teases as he extends his arms, pretending to be searching for her.

Yue nudges him with her hip and then rinses her mouth. "You know I can't shower with cold water. I freeze," she pouts.

Dylan hugs her from behind and kisses her neck, where he stays and speaks, brushing his lips on her warm skin. "Alright, no problem, except when we shower together, because I feel I'm being cooked for dinner..."

Yue bites a chuckle and elbows him.

"Ouch! Leave the violence for tomorrow, sweetie. You're off the hook tonight." He then whispers in her ear: "It's my time to shower now, but you'll make it up to me in the morning, big time," he states in a seductive voice that makes Yue's core vibrate as she bites her lower lip.

Gosh, this man!

Yue swivels in his embrace and shoots her heels up to give him a quick kiss that makes Dylan rejoice. She has no objections to his indecent proposal. Awesome.

"What are the plans for tomorrow, cookie?"

"Um, Lina is being discharged in the morning, so I will visit her after lunch."

Dylan frowns and the crease between his brows deepens. "What do you mean by you will visit?"

To be able to look at her face better, Dylan hoists Yue up on the bathroom counter, next to the sink.

Yue cringes. "I mean... you don't have to come?" she hesitates.

"You don't want me to go with you?!" Dylan is baffled and a tad wounded.

Yue's eyes widen and she honestly does not know how to reply. Didn't he say it was fine if he didn't meet her parents for the time being? "I... We... Didn't we agree not to tell my family yet?"
