Sleepy Head and Little Hayden
Sleepy Head and Little Hayden
“Umm…I don’t think…” I protested as I scooted away further onto the bed in my panic.
To my further surprise, Hayden began laughing at me and that was when I realized that he must have
pulled a joke on me. Not that I found it very funny; however, I was very relieved that he didn’t insist on
going for another round tonight.
In the end, I fell asleep in Hayden’s arms from exhaustion, and I didn’t remember anything else about
that night. The next morning, nothing woke me up until I started stirring in my sleep on my own. My
body decided that it had had enough rest and wanted to wake up. Precisely because of that, I woke up
late and by the time that I sat up in bed, Hayden was no longer there by my side. Panicking a little, I got
out of bed and went looking for him.
He was no where to be found and the time displayed on the clock hanging on the wall explained why. It
was almost noon! Honestly, I was shocked at how much I had overslept.
‘Are you awake, sleepyhead?’
Hayden sent me a teasing message along with a photo of me sleeping on his bed. When this he take
this photo? I quickly zoomed into the photo to see if I was drooling in my sleep. This is so
embarrassing!
I didn’t know what to reply to Hayden, so I decided to reply to him later. It was already this late so
Hayden must have left for work a long time ago. Things were probably still busy and hectic because
Hayden had been so disciplined in going to work for a while now. Before when we lived together in the
penthouse, he was super laid back and didn’t seem to care much about his work at all.
Oh, right! The other thing that I need to worry about right now is Little Hayden. Where is he? Is he
alright? Has he had breakfast? How many times a day is a dog supposed to eat anyways?
So many questions ran through my brain that I was struggling to keep up. To make matters worse, I
didn’t have any clothes. All my clothes were back in my room and the clothes that I had worn when I
came over here was torn, thanks to Hayden. I wrapped the towel that Hayden gave me last night
around my body and was about to walk out of the room when the door opened, and Auntie stood there
like an angel sent to rescue me from my distress.
“Good morning,” she said with a knowing smile.
In her right hand, she held my clothes hanging from a few hangers while her left hand held a tray of
fruits and sandwiches. In that moment, I was certain that heaven existed, and it sent her as an angel to
save me.
“Thank you…so much…” I said as relief flooded my body.
“You should eat and get dressed. Master Hayden already left for work, but he was quite worried about
you,” Auntie said as she walked in and placed the tray on a table.
“Thank you. Umm…what about Little Hayden? I mean, you know, the puppy that Hayden bought,” I
asked with worry.
“Oh, is that its name? Little Hayden…is fine. He’s super cheerful and the maids like him quite a lot.
He’s well fed so there’s nothing for you to worry about,” Auntie told me reassuringly.
“I see. That’s good. Thank you for your help,” I thanked her before sighing a little in relief.
“No worries at all. The weather is nice today so why don’t you take umm…Little Hayden out to play in
the garden outside?” Auntie suggested.
“That sounds like a splendid idea!” I readily agreed.
Besides playing with Little Hayden and giving him a chance to explore the garden outside, I can also do
some sketches of the flowers and perhaps paint a little. Feeling enthusiastic, I headed into the
bathroom to shower and change my clothes. Ignoring the fact that my entire lower body was sore from
our vigorous activities from last night, I quickly got dressed so that I could make some progress today.
After putting a few pieces of fruit into my mouth, I headed back to my room immediately to find Little
Hayden. The little corgi puppy was there to greet me the moment that I opened the door into my room.
He came running right up to me on his short chubby legs with his little tail wagging around
energetically. I knew it already from last night but seeing him again just confirmed my thoughts, Little
Hayden is the most adorable thing ever. I bent down and scooped him up into my arms while the maid
that had been looking after him giggled a little.
“Thank you for taking care of him,” I thanked her with a smile.
“No worries. He already had breakfast so his next meal will be dinner,” the maid said politely.
“Thank you so much. I’ll take it from here,” I said while relieving her from her duties here so that she
could work on her other tasks.
Little Hayden stared up at me and I looked down to smile at him. His brown eyes seemed to always be
begging for something. His fur was so soft that I couldn’t resist hugging him a little tightly to my chest.
He feels so wonderful in my arms that I wanted to keep hugging him all day. That wasn’t really an
option though, because I needed to do some work on my art before I lose my touch. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
I walked to the art studio with Little Hayden still in my arms. He seemed excited about everything and
kept on looking around with his nose sniffing at the air around him. I wondered how obedient he is and
how well I can train him. Not having any experience or much knowledge about this, I made a mental
note to consult a search engine to gather knowledge of how to raise a puppy properly. Has this guy
gone to the toilet yet today? I forgot to ask the maid from earlier…
