Chapter 24: I don't remember...right

Engfa's POV

The next morning, I felt very nauseous, and the first thing I did after I woke up was to go to the bathroom to puke every alcohol from my body system. With much difficulty, I forced myself to sober up by washing my face with cold water.

After several minutes, I realised that I was fully naked when I saw myself in the mirror. "How much did I drink last night?" I was shocked to see myself let loose. 

Afraid I might do something wrong last night, I carefully find my clothes on the floor. While searching for my underwear, my eyes gravitated to what was on the bed, and right there was when I saw a sleeping Char. 

And to add to that information, might I add that she also appeared naked. "What the hell happened last night??? I remembered that we played a drinking game, and I tried to kiss her but failed..." I recalled yesterday's incident. 

"BUT WHY ARE WE BOTH NAKED!!!" I mentally scolded myself. Hopefully, I didn't do anything stupid with Char....she's my best friend, for god sake...

In the midst of searching for my clothes rather hastily, causing me to make a noise in the room, Char unknowingly woke up while looking beautiful with no eye bags detected, unlike me. 

At that time, she stared at me, unfazed by my nervousness about running away from my own home. When she was about to get out of bed, I covered my eyes because I didn't dare to see her with nothing on. 

"What are you doing?" Char was confused at my weirdness. So, I asked her what happened last night, thinking of countless embarrassing scenarios in my head ahead of her statement. 

"You don't remember what we did yesterday?" She was now fully awake, probably disappointed in me at the fact that I didn't remember anything that we had done the night before. 

"I only remembered we play a game...and kis- no wait...did we do something foolish?" I struggled to conceal the most important part of the story.

"Oh no, no... all good... we only played Strip Poker, hence why we're both naked right now.." She tried to make up a story. 

"Alright then..." I just accepted her answer because I didn't want to be reminded of what had occurred last night.

Swiftly, I continued to find my clothes and underwear and rushed to the bathroom, causing Char to laugh because of my ridiculousness. Following that, I walked into my bedroom again, and now, she was also fully clothed, not to make it strange between us. 

"I think I should go home... see you later, okay?" Char tried to make her way out, but I stopped her from going. 

"Let's eat breakfast together first...I am a little hangover from the drinking," I made an excuse for her to stay, and she calmly went along with my plan for the day.

...

After cooking our breakfast together, I let her arrange the utensils and pour the coffee for the two of us. When she did everything I instructed, I couldn't help but smile, seeing her do all the small things that I thought were meaningless. 

But soon enough, I found my composure as I realised that my way of thinking sounded abnormal today. "Just what came over me?" I asked myself.

Once we settled down with ourselves and the food, we began to eat quietly because I was starving after puking almost my entire stomach's content. 

The morning mood was silent and simple, with coffee brewing on the side. It was a nice environment to wake up to. However, Char just had to ruin the mood when she suggested that I should start dating someone. Like why the sudden desire to advise me to pursue someone?

"Wait....did I say something to you last night?" I was now scared to find the truth.

"Yep, you said you wanted to make me your boyfriend because you feel lonely...and well...I accepted your request. But I don't think it's valid anymore since you were very drunk last night to think rationally." She ogled at me, perhaps trying to challenge me to do something about it.

I may not remember, but I could sense the energy between us had changed. What is it?
