A few moments later, Anna approached her father who was back in the back garden.This time her father was holding scissors and cutting some flowers that had already bloomed.Anna knew where the flowers would go. The flowers will be placed on Amanda's grave.Three days have passed since the death of her twin sister. Anna knew it was still a little time to see how consistent someone could be. It's possible that her father has been regularly sending flowers to her sister’s grave for the past few days, but next week he won't have time or won't remember.Even so, for some reason, Anna is sure that her father will continue to consistently send flowers to Amanda's grave every day. Just like the consistent love he gave them from childhood until they were adults.Anna walked over to her father."Dad," said Anna quietly. Stopping her father's scissoring movements."What's wrong, Anna? Has your mother called me to dinner?”"It's not even evening yet, dad," said Anna as she sat in the chair next
Now Elena and Reid are in Hawaii.Initially, Elena planned to take Reid abroad, just like Doctor Brook's suggestion, to take Reid to a faraway place that no one could possibly recognize.However, after thinking about it, taking Reid out of the country meant that Elena had to arrange for Reid's passport. For this reason, Elena needs to make a fake identity card for Reid.In all her life, Elena had never been in contact with anything illegal, so she didn't know where to look for a place that provided services like that. Elena also wasn't sure Doctor Brook could help with this.Even if Elena asks her friends, Elena is afraid it will arouse suspicion.Elena wasn't really close to her friends. They are just friends as well as acquaintances, not the kind of true friends who are there for you in your difficult and happy times. So Elena couldn't trust them completely.What if they become suspicious and investigate Elena, then find out that Elena is hiding Reid? They will definitely immediatel
Elena still had her eyes closed, but in fact her consciousness had been awake since a few minutes ago, at least half of it.Because Elena hasn't opened her eyes yet, she doesn't know what time it is, but it must be quite afternoon. The sun's glare hit her and it made Elena immediately roll her body into a prone position. She hugged her pillow tightly, which was soft and fragrant with flowers and a mixture of fresh aromas that she doesn't know what to call. Elena really likes this scent.Elena liked the scent so much, she kept sniffing until she found an area with a stronger scent. Elena immediately hugged the pillow, which unfortunately wasn't as soft as the previous part. This part feels harder and hairier.Gosh, this hotel is absolutely perfect, providing pillows of all kinds.Wait, hotel?Elena immediately remembered where she was, and that made her immediately open her eyes.How surprised Elena was when she saw Reid lying beside her. And even more surprised because Elena's hands s
When Elena finally got up from the beach and returned to the lounge bench where Reid was waiting for her, she realized how long she had been swimming. One more hour.“Ben, I'm sorry. I was so engrossed in swimming that I lost track of time. You must be bored waiting for me, right? You should have just left me and gone back to the hotel," said Elena quickly, full of guilt.Meanwhile, the person Elena was talking to just smiled faintly, but then his expression stiffened.“How could I leave my girlfriend swimming alone. Don't you see how the other men here are looking at you? Of course I have to look after you here," said Reid.Elena blinked. She hurriedly looked around.Whether it was a coincidence or not, several men immediately looked away, as if they had been staring at Elena and Reid—or just Elena?—and felt caught off guard because Elena turned her head.Elena immediately glanced at her bikini. Is the bikini too sexy?According to her, no. Her bikini consists of a red one piece, whi
Elena should have immediately pushed Reid's chest, Elena should have immediately slapped Reid, but instead she remained silent.Was it because she was afraid that her charade as Reid's girlfriend would be exposed? Or because she didn't want to hurt Reid if she pushed the man's chest? Or is it because she enjoyed this kiss too?Elena didn't know. Elena couldn't think. Her brain can't be used. Currently all that could function were all the nerves in her body which made her body tingle.Reid's kiss was very gentle.From the start, Reid touched his lips to Elena's lips, Reid touched them gently, with a stroke, as if waiting for Elena to respond.As if, if Elena pursed her lips and made a gesture of refusal, Reid would back off.But Elena didn't purse her lips. Elena was indeed frozen, but with a small gap in her lips.As if thinking it was a positive response from Elena, Reid's lips stopped rubbing and changed to kissing Elena's lips. A soft kiss that made Elena's body tremble.Moreover,
No. She couldn't tell him the truth now. She had gone this far, so there was no way she could dismantle the lies she had composed.So Elena said, “You misunderstand, Reid. I rejected you not because I don't want you, or even hate you, but because... I just got my period. We can't possibly do it.”Elena bit her lip. She really couldn't think of a better reason than this.Elena immediately continued, "And everything you said just now, about me always avoiding you, is definitely just your feeling. Maybe you misinterpreted my attitude. I'm just trying to be careful with you because you're hurt. I don't want to accidentally hurt you."Reid looked at Elena, as if measuring whether Elena was telling the truth or not.In her heart, Elena prayed that Reid would immediately believe her. Because if not, Elena doesn't know what other reason to convince Reid.She is not a writer who is good at making up excuses.Then suddenly Reid took a deep breath. "I'm sorry because I accused you of something f
“Your face feels very familiar, but where do you think I saw you?” said the doctor while squinting at Reid as if he was remembering.Suddenly there was laughter from Elena. “Do you know, Doc? This isn't the first time someone has said something like that. My boyfriend is so handsome he looks like an artist. Do you know the actor who received the best actor award yesterday? Well, many people say my boyfriend looks like him," said Elena, improvising.The doctor laughed along with Elena. He nodded. “It turns out you look like an artist. No wonder your face feels familiar, I must have seen it often on television or in magazines," said the doctor."Yes, doc," replied Elena feeling relieved. Meanwhile Reid didn't comment at all.After that the doctor stopped bringing up Reid's face and focused on carrying out the examination.After a while, the doctor said that Reid was fine and he could go home. The doctor only prescribed painkillers if Reid experienced unbearable headaches again.Elena an
"Yes! I'll sleep in the same bed with you!" Elena exclaimed. She deliberately said it loudly so Reid could hear it clearly and didn't need to ask again.Because if Reid asks again, it's not certain that Elena will have the courage to say anything again. Who knows, the next minute she will be shaken.But before she could waver or change her mind, Reid immediately got up from his lying position on the sofa. The man stood up as fast as lightning."Okay," said Reid, walking straight to the bed.Meanwhile, Elena was stunned on the spot. She wondered whether her decision was the right one? Isn't anything going to happen tonight?“What are you waiting for? Come on, come here," Reid called, patting the pillow next to him. The man was even lying on his side on the bed on the right. His lips curled into a grin."Ben, even though I'm willing to sleep in the same bed with you, that doesn't mean we can..." Elena felt too embarrassed to continue her words."Make love?" Reid, who was kind, continued
