Briana chuckled, "We don't have to be stiff and serious all the time, you know. She's your wife, not some random woman. What's the big deal in helping her change into her nightgown?"
"Just because Cornelia is my wife doesn't mean I can take liberties when she's unconscious," Marcus explained, turning to shut the window. "You help her change, and stay here with her. Don't leave."
By the time Marcus came back upstairs, Briana had already changed Cornelia into her nightgown. Briana was nodding off by the side of Cornelia's bed, her head slowly drooping down.
Marcus gave her a gentle nudge, "You can go to sleep now."
"I have to wake up early tomorrow," Briana got up, rubbing her eyes and headed out. She bumped into the door frame on her way out, making Marcus shake his head in disbelief.
His wife, Cornelia, was only slightly older than Briana, but she was much more mature and sensible.
