Alix lay nestled in his arms, staring at his handsome sleeping face unblinkingly. It was the middle of the night and though the ecstatic moments of their passion had left them both exhausted, mysteriously, she failed to get sleep. Tired as she was, she had this strange urge to simply look at Jin and absorb this moment together with him.
She felt as if she thought about nothing yet a million thoughts bounced back and forth like the game of ping pong. She slowly lifted her hand and ever so lightly touched his cheek. Her fingertips brushed against his hair and faintly traced his cheekbone.
She had come far was what she realized in the peaceful silence. The serenity in this present moment felt similar to the time she woke from the coma. She had stayed still on the hospital bed just like tonight upon realizing her reincarnation. For a long time, she wasn't even sure if she should feel happy or loatheful.
