Jade's phone buzzed on the table. Sapphire tried to reach for the phone but she couldn't. Jade was resting on the other side of her shoulder and she didn't want to wake him up. Else, he might not get time to sleep.
The buzzing stopped and continued again. She stretched her hand and finally touched the screen. Doing this, Jade woke up. He took a deep breath and looked around, confusedly.
"How long have I slept?" He asked.
"Not that long. Almost an hour ago."
Jade let out a heavy sigh and hummed to himself. "I finally feel alive again."
Sapphire stared at him with guilt laced in her eyes. For some reasons, she felt responsible for everything. As if she'd pushed him to the wall in the last three days.
"You look like you've only managed to have a meal today. How many hours of sleep have you been getting?"
