“I don’t think that’s necessary.

Let’s just go to sleep.

Later that night, Cordelia suddenly cried out.

Awakened by the noise, Alexis stirred, but before she could fully open her eyes, she felt Leonel quietly slipping out of bed.

As she slowly became aware of her surroundings, she saw him holding their baby girl in his arms, taking her to the window, and soothing her gently.

His voice was soft as he whispered, “Sweetie, your mommy is sleeping.

So keep your voice down, okay?”

Little Cordelia stretched her limbs while whining, seemingly expressing her discontent.

Leonel quickly checked her diaper and identified the cause of her discomfort.

Carefully laying the baby girl on the crib, he expertly changed her diaper and even applied some baby powder on her buttocks.

Little Cordelia seemed content now, patiently waiting for her food.

Hesitating for a moment, Leonel carefully placed their baby girl on their bed.

Then he lay on his side and began to unbutton Alexis‘ clothes process in the caution, with afraid of her waking up.

In the dimly lit bedroom, he didn’t notice that Alexis had already woken up.

As he placed the baby girl in Alexis’ arms, little Cordelia instinctively found her source of food and began to suckle contentedly.

Witnessing this sight, Leonel suddenly felt awkward, despite it not being his first time becoming a father.

After a while, little Cordelia started to whine again, prompting Leonel to move to help her.

However, Alexis abruptly shifted and began to help the baby girl with one hand.

Stunned, Leonel asked in a hoarse voice, “You’re awake?”

She nodded her head silently, choosing not to say anything further.

Leonel leaned against the bed and silently accompanied the mother and the baby.

Once he had returned little Cordelia to her crib, Leonel returned to the bed.

As he reached out to lie down, he felt something wet on the pillow.

Frowning in confusion, he wondered if Alexis had been crying.

Slowly, he lay down, reaching out to touch Alexis’ face with the same hand.

Afterward, he withdrew his hand and instinctively Licked his fingertips, as if seeking some clue from her tears.

In the darkness of the room, they couldn’t see each other’s expressions.

Leonel spoke gently.

“It tastes a bit salty! Alexis, please tell me why you are upset.

Did I do something wrong?”

Alexis didn’t know how to articulate the overwhelming feelings she felt when she saw Leonel held their daughter.

She simply shook her head and remained silent.

Understanding her silence, Leonel didn’t press further.

Instead, he held her tenderly in his arms, offering silent comfort.

In the following days, the two of them got along well with each other.

Leonel never imposed anything on Alexis, always respecting her boundaries and feelings.
