John lifted the quilt and stood up. "I'll ask the hotel to send food here."
"Wait!" Nina held his hand and John sat on the edge of the bed. He held her hand and asked, "What's wrong?"
"No need to ask them to send food to the hotel. Let's go out to eat." Then Nina lifted the quilt and sat up, stretching herself.
She had a good sleep and her face was ruddy.
John glanced at her slender waist and asked, "Can you still go out?"
"Why not?" Nina got out of bed as if nothing had happened.
It was a heavy blow to John. He didn't regain his face until he saw Nina carefully took a deep breath when he stretched out her legs.
He stepped forward and held her in his arms. "No, I'll ask the hotel to send food here."
"I want to have dinner with you. You will go back to Lexingport City tomorrow afternoon. You won't be back until half a month later."
Nina's bright eyes were always irresistible.
"I'll be back in a week. By that time, your body will definitely recover. Let's..." said John.
"Well, we'd better ask the hotel to deliver the food." Nina compromised. 'He hadn't been in Lexingport City for a year, so he must have a lot of work to do. It is too hard for him to fly here for a week.

John didn't turn around. 'I am afraid that I wouldn't be able to leave once I turned around.'
Nina didn't leave. She stood by the French window and watched the plane John was in taking off, leaving a trace of home in the air.
It was a long journey from the C Island to the Lexingport City. At night, Nina didn't sleep. She sat on the bed with her mobile phone and waited for the news of John.
In the early morning, John called.
Nina was overjoyed. Looking at the caller ID, she didn't answer it. She just lay down and waited for him to hang up.
He hung up soon and she received his message soon.
"Little girl, you're a good girl. Don't worry. I've landed safely." ....
Nina put the phone off the screen and closed her eyes to sleep.
It was at noon in the Lexingport City. It was not cool in early autumn of September. On the contrary, the sun was scorching, which was not much better than C Island.
When John left the airport, he saw a tall and straight figure from afar.
'We hadn't seen each other for a year, and James had grown taller.
He looks so handsome in his suit.'
