The fragrance. I smell vanilla now. This pillow is new laundry.
I pressed myself deeper into my pillow, it was comfortable and I didn't want to wake up. It's good to sleep.
I wanted to feel the hug on my pillow but I thought we had an exam later and I had to wake up early again to review my notes again and I might forget.
I tried to open my eyes even though I was still very sleepy, but the sleepiness I felt seemed to disappear when I realized that the pillow I was hugging earlier was not a pillow. My eyes widened and I couldn't swallow. I also slowly moved away from my hug with Freen so that she wouldn't wake up but I was wrong 'cause she's already awake or maybe she didn't sleep?
"S-sorry," I said shakily and got up completely.
She just closed her eyes and ignored what I said. After a while she got up, she yawned, and then ran her fingers through her hair while her eyes were still closed. It was obvious that she had not slept.
"I-I'm back in my room." I said goodbye and took all my reviewers, I didn't even wait for what she had to say and left so she could have time to rest.
It's already 4 in the morning and our exam starts at eight so I still have a few hours to review and prepare later. And freen still has a few hours to sleep.
It was a bad decision for me to agree to sleep there. Maybe she also regrets her decision to let me sleep there.
I scratched my head. I can't seem to focus now because of what happened earlier. It's like I still feel like she was the one who hugged me earlier. That sweet smell of hers, seems to have transferred to my clothes.
"How many hours did you sleep?" Irinasked me, "you look like a zombie."
I'm in school and everything but that's still what's on my mind. The way I hugged freen, the way I pressed my body to her body.
I washed my face with my two palms, "Wait a minute, I want to take the exam," so that this day will be over so that I can get it out of my mind.
"Ma'am freen is supposed to be our proctor because the one who should be our proctor had an emergency," I heard Clarence say from the front.
Many people were disappointed because cheating wouldn't work on freen. That's what she hates the most.
"Good morning, ma'am," everyone greeted when she entered.
She didn't greet back, she just nodded and passed the test papers. Everyone was speechless, just focused on their own roles because freen kept looking at us.
While doing the exam, someone approached me, irin who was snorting in front of me so I looked at her. She was referring to freen who yawned every now and then.
Actually I feel guilty. It was obvious in her eyes that she had no sleep and that was because of my actions. But who said I should just sleep in her room?
"Looks like her wife kept her up last night," irin whispered to me.
"Gago," I mouthed back and ignored her again, maybe later freen would see us.
When I finished filling out my paper, I didn't pass it. I pretended to answer so as not to distract my classmates when I suddenly stood up and passed.
I looked in front again, at freen but I immediately bowed to see her staring at me or did she just happen to look at me when I looked at her?
