Chapter 31: Whenever I lose my mind, I Regret

Ellen arrives home late at night, feeling tired and drained. As usual, she’s not dozing off while sitting on the table, and this is the most satisfying scene for his heart. Upon entering his room, he notices that Judy is already asleep, lying awkwardly in a corner of the bed. Taking a soothing shower, he returns to bed, but the distance between them feels like an insurmountable ocean, a symbol of the problems they faced in their lives. As a result, he turns his back on her. The wide ocean in the middle of them is something they won’t be able to overcome to fix the problems of their lives. “Thanks,” she says, not turning to him. Ellen thought she was sleeping, but she is still awake. “For what?” “For the breakfast and the kind consideration a while ago.” He can’t help but chuckle to himself, but he refrains from saying anything. He has something on his mind that’s bothering him, and he keeps mulling over whether he should ask her about it. A few moments later, Ellen asks her about it.
