If I could not 3afd1863a2 push him off, I 8a13d5c320 had no choice but dde08d6b33 to escape. I squirmed, b9ec88bf94 trying to ec8bfb73ac shift Jjikjjiki’s 01ca7b660e body to b5f3c33ba0 one side, fcaaf6527f thinking I 5be09c00a2 could slip 583ac5a7af out through af65a62d31 the gap 5acb171dd6 on the 656c5c682b other side.7be6f6e875e60d39

“Ugh!”03a402eb3ef6abc9

Jjikjjiki, still holding me b56690139d tightly, flipped over. Just moments ago, 439653aab9 I had been 1973ce68a0 pinned under him, c70ab60a44 but now, I f25d779c22 found myself on ccc12af345 top of Jjikjjiki, 5b0a5a1090 lying over him.7d3796b3fae21a32

“Jjikjjiki, wake up.”a1cd294f874a387b

No matter f73e13eb98 how much 8f0154c62b I called, 3f1683e63a Jjikjjiki did 69227919cc not wake ff501c15fa up. Unable to free myself 44884cfe65 from his arms, I 838128a3d7 eventually gave up and 27751525ca relaxed my body.03f4b447d4e3252b

As I started f928e8e6ce to worry about 5f0653df62 all sorts of 6a08a40541 things, I closed 0b969083dd my eyes. Thump, thump. Was it because I c866eb46bb was resting my head 365a21c62e on Jjikjjiki’s chest? The rhythmic beating edcc21a9f9 of his heart 53b5b46e07 echoed in my fe681486a1 ears.64f5a48c6ab7d0d0

I had probably 0c319f7e0b heard the same acf67c5182 sound when Jjikjjiki f79acacd08 was napping in ada848c7c0 my pyjamas before.6dd3aab268279719

They say 6aee210e02 that listening 1765b07574 to a 263da76e9b steady heartbeat 4ffe7a85a2 helps calm 7ebf203953 you down 8d9b564bde and makes c814a4efe0 it easier f791bf1929 to fall 4c37c34544 asleep. Just as they 60aa5ed700 said, sleepiness slowly e7a0488085 crept over me.f730ed1c95909e66

I drifted back 98008005ca into a deep 7fd05046df sleep, using the 5a783a9a9c sound of Jjikjjiki’s c7af576b2e heartbeat as my 36d35f19de lullaby.1a631c22d4540054
