She was wiping her hair dry with the towel when she looked at Austin and asked in concern, "Are you not sleepy?" He had just taken a long flight from Azure City, then brought her out for dinner. Anyone would be exhausted.
He placed the book by the side table and waved at her. "I'm not. Chere." He picked up the hair dryer next to him. He had been waiting for her just to help her dry her hair.
As the hot air blew her hair dry, Suzanne felt the warmth seep into her body as well. She was thoroughly moved by Austin's actions.
