"Nathalie," James's body tensed because, at this time, Nathalie opened her eyes while looking at James.
"I-I" James was at a loss for words. He should have checked on Natalie. Is she sleeping or just pretending? But he carelessly told his essential secret.
"Oliver," called Nathalie one more time, but the girl's eyes closed, and her head fell on James's chest. James's heart beat faster; he touched Nathalie's shoulder gently while shaking her.
"Nathalie, Natalie, you're not sleeping, are you?" asked James, feeling anxious.
"Nathalie," James squeezed Nathalie's shoulder to test Nathalie's awareness. But only the sound of breath coming out of Nathalie's slightly open mouth.
James couldn't believe it; just now, he was distraught because Nathalie woke up after hearing his secret confession.
