Chapter 166: Wake Up

Four Months Later:

Sun’s rays filtered through the curtains as a person tiptoed into the room. Holding a plate of hot steaming pancakes and a cup of hot chocolate, the person looked down at the sleeping bundle with a smile.

Gently, the tray was placed aside and a voice called out," Time to wake up, sleepyhead."

The dishevelled bundle of blankets stirred, and a hand reached out to pull the blankets over her head, a few muffled words could be heard, probably saying to let her sleep some more.

"Are you not going to come out?"

Another muffled groan.

"I’ve got you the perfect breakfast."

"Hmffh rii fewe"

"I do not understand your sleep language. Fine. Since you are not coming out, I’ll come in."

Tugging at the blankets, Isabella Ruffalo quickly slid into bed with Nora while the latter continued to protest sleepily. Throwing a leg over her girlfriend, Isabelle laughed near her friend’s ear, "I’d like to see you try and sleep now!"

Nora, who had been pushed to the edge of the single bed by her roommate, opened one groggy eye, giving Isabella a death glare," How can you ruin my sleep and still call me a friend!"

Isabelle grinned down at her friend while patting her arm consolingly," I brought you breakfast in bed. That makes me your girlfriend, sweet chums."

Nora raised her head off the pillow at the mention of breakfast but quickly buried her self back in and groaned," I don’t feel like eating. I want to sleep."

"You cannot miss the most important meal of the day, sweets! Come on wake up! We have things to do!"

"I did things last night, alright! I have nothing to do but sleep! Go away."

"Ohhh! What did you do, sweety pie? Tell me... Did you sneak in a boy last night because I was not around? You naughty little girl. Come on spill the beans. Who did you do? Was it a famous hunk or a handsome nerd?"

Her sleep flying away by the minute, Nora complained," Why did I ever think it would be a good idea to room with you? I think you have Noctispectophobia¹. And if you must know, I slept with Spivak."

Isabelle scrunched her face as she heard her words," There is no word called Nocti...." And that is when the last part of her words registered and she jumped up in bed," You slept with someone? Who? When? Who is this Spivak? Why did you not introduce him to me? How could you do this? Wake up and tell me everything!"

Nora finally sat up in bed slowly as she glared at her friend. There was no way she would get any sleep now. But because Isabella had woken her up, she deserved to be tortured by her," You are well acquainted with him."

With that cryptic line, Nora quickly ran towards the washroom, locking Isabella out. However, she could still hear her squealing and grumbling about who Spivak was.

Grinning, she finished her business at a leisurely pace enjoying Isabella’s agitation as the girl was possibly tearing a hole in the carpet with her pacing while knocking incessantly on her door.

As she brushed her teeth, another idea for a prank entered her head and she took out the phone. Opening a chat, she quickly typed out," I slept with Spivak! This is what you get for throwing your wife away into a different country."

After spitting out, she checked her phone for a reply but when the phone remained silent, she made a face at the mirror and casually walked out. Breakfast in bed was all well and good but she could not possibly eat without brushing.

She’d barely stepped out of the room when Isabella stood in front of her with arms crossed and eyes narrowed," I am holding that breakfast hostage until you tell me who sneaked in last night! How can you do this? How could you cheat on your relationship?"

"You are the one who is always telling me to cheat and get rid of Demetri, Isabella! And why are you so angry? Don’t tell me you are worried about Demetri?"

Before Isabella could reply, Nora’s phone chimed and she looked down at the phone. Unexpectedly, Demetri had replied," You can hook up with Baby Rudin next."

Showing the chat to Isabelle, Nora grinned," See, you do not have to worry about Demetri as well. He knows who I slept with and has even suggested someone for future hookups."

Isabella glanced from the phone’s screen to her friends’ mischievous face. Narrowing her eyes, she grabbed the phone from her hand and quickly jumped her so that both girls fell on the bed and quickly asked," You better tell me who these people are! And by cheating I meant me! How could you cheat on me? I trusted you so much! I even left my previous roommate just to be with you. And this is what I get..."

Quickly shoving aside her friend, Nora raced to grab her breakfast while Isabells lay on the bed, staring up at the ceiling, giving the most dramatic poses and sounds ever.

Finally, when Nora had devoured the breakfast, she decided to re-introduce her friend to her sleeping partners.

"Come on. I’ll introduce you to my last night’s partner and Baby Rudin."

Isabella quickly stood up, ready to march out of the room, but instead of going out, Nora walked to the side table and handed her the two big fat books.

Isabella looked down at the heavy books in her hand and then at her friend in confusion. She read the title of the first book... Calculus by M. Spivak...¹ With a groan and almost guessing what to expect next, she placed down the book and read the others’ title... "Principles of Mathematical Analysis" by Walter Rudin²... The book was often referred to as Baby Rudin...

"You slept with calculus yesterday and fooled me. And you tried to fool Demetri but he was onto you." Isabella slowly muttered with the realization, recognizing once again how these two were totally suitable for each other. Then why were they living separately and refused to speak to each other on the phone, only communicating via text messages?

"Our Math exam is in two days, of course, I am sleeping with the textbooks. Now, would you care to tell me why you were so intent on waking me up at the crack of dawn?"

"It’s not the crack of dawn. And... we have to plan your birthday party! Your birthday is in three days!"

Nora paused in the middle of sipping her hot chocolate. It was her birthday in three days... and her wedding anniversary in thirty-three days...
