The next morning, Samantha and Theodore were still sleeping together when the sun already shone brightly into their room. Samantha was the one who moved her body first. Samantha noticed the sun and tried to open up her eyes. “Oh my God!” Samantha was shocked when she remembered that she had to go back to her room.Samantha looked at Theodore, who didn’t even bother. Samantha sat down and walked down from bed. Samantha opened the door slowly and looked around to make sure that Grandma hadn’t woken up yet.“Morning, Sammy.” Grandma greeted Samantha when Samantha finally closed the door.“Morning, Grandma.” Samantha tried to smile while her heartbeat was beating so fast. “I am going to wake up, Theo.”“Is he waking up already?” Grandma asked while she put a basket of vegetables in the kitchen.“Not yet.” Samantha lied. “Let me help you, Grandma.”Samantha walked to the kitchen and helped wash all the vegetables without bothering to take a bath. Grandma looked so calm and didn’t ask anyt
Samantha changed and took a sweater while Theodore helped turn on the water for Grandma. Samantha walked outside and met them on the plantation. Theodore noticed Samantha’s presence and smiled when their eyes met.“What?” Samantha asked, pissed.“Grandma, we are going out first.” Theodore said goodbye to Grandma.“Yes, have fun, guys!” Grandma waved her hand to Samantha and Theodore.Theodore also waved his hand and held Samantha's hand. Samantha took her hand off and pushed Theodore to walk first in front of her. Theodore just followed what Samantha did to him.“Are you still angry?” Theodore asked when they had already walked to the city.“Do you have to go this far?” Samantha started to interrogate Theodore in the middle of their way to somewhere they hadn’t planned before.“I am sorry, but I am so confused. Why are you ignoring me this morning?” Theodore also had his own excuses.“It is not a reason to tell Grandma about what happened last night. I don’t mind you telling her if we
Theodore and Samantha went to a shopping place to buy some new clothes for them. The shopping place was not big enough, and that was one of the famous places to shop for new clothes.“This is quite small,” whispered Theodore while walking beside Samantha.“This is the best place this city has.” Samantha gave a new fact to Theodore.“Oh, alright.” Theodore just nodded his head.“Just go find your own clothes.”Samantha and Theodore walked to different sections; Samantha walked to the women section, while Theodore looked at the men section. Samantha took three short dresses, two short pants, one skirt, and five shirts. Theodore took three short pants, two long pants, and five shirts.“Are you done?” Theodore asked Samantha while looking at her basket.“Yes, I am.” Samantha nodded her hand in confidence.“Don’t you want to buy this tote bag?” Theodore pointed at a tote bag, which looked so beautiful.“Nope, I have one already.” Samantha rejected.“But I want to buy this for you.” Theodor
Theodore had already done his business in the kitchen and started walking to the bathroom. Theodore wanted to take a bath and try on his new clothes. Theodore washed his hair and his body in warm water while humming a song that was already stuck in his head.“I am not going anywhere!” Samantha’s voice could be heard from the bathroom.Theodore, who had just finished his bath time, sped up and wrapped his body in a towel. Theodore didn’t bother to wear his clothes and jumped out of the bathroom. Theodore walked to the middle room and checked out what happened to Samantha.“Let’s go home! Why are you coming here?”“This is my house.” Samantha replied in anger.“No, this is not your house. This is your mother's house, and you don’t deserve to live like this.” Mr. Heather was the one who suddenly came up to this house. “This place is not proper for you.”Mr. Heather grabbed Samantha’s hand and pulled her out of the house. But Samantha tried so hard to stay where she was standing.“I am no
Theodore successfully cooked dinner tonight, and everyone liked it. Grandma went to bed right away after that and took pills to heal her bruise. Samantha took her gently before leaving her and helping Theodore wash the dishes.“How is Grandma?” Theodore asked while his hands didn’t stop washing the dishes.“She is alright; I helped her take the pill and treat her bruises.” Samantha told Theodore and helped him put the dishes in their place.“Thank you,” said Theodore, drying up his hands and suddenly hugging Samantha from behind.“Theo, what are you doing?” Samantha’s face blushed.“I just want to hug my girlfriend.” Theodore whispered behind her ear, which made her tingle all over her body. Samantha didn’t reply because her heartbeat already beat fast and she couldn’t help it. Theodore loosened up his hug and turned Samantha’s body until their eyes met. “I almost lost you.” Theodore said it sadly.“But you saved me.” Samantha put her hand on Theodore’s cheeks.“I won’t let him brin
When the sun hasn’t fully risen, a police siren is heard from the cottage. Everyone in the cottage woke up and reunited in the middle room.“What is that sound?” Grandma asked while putting on her sweater.“I don’t have any idea.” Theodore replied and then looked at Samantha. Samantha ran late because she wanted to wear her sweater too. Samantha hopped into Theodore with a worried face. “Theo,” she whimpered. “It is okay; I am here.” Theodore hugged Samantha and walked together into the front door. “Police!” Five policemen were standing right in front of the door and surrounded Theodore, Samantha, and Grandma. “What are you doing here, sir?” Grandma asked one of the policemen.“We are here to catch Sir Theodore Hawthorne.”Samantha, who was hiding behind Theodore, suddenly looked at him terrifically. Grandma also did the same while looking at Theodore.“It is me who you are looking for.” Theodore walked forward.“Theo,” whispered Samantha slowly.Theodore looked back at Samantha a
The police brought Theodore to their office. Theodore didn’t say anything and just sat down in one of their chairs. “Please, wait here.”Theodore made sure that the police officer already went away before he pulled out his phone. Theodore sent a short text to Preston and gave the exact location. Theodore put back his phone and sat still. The police officer came back and sat in front of Theodore, “We will start the investigation. But, before that please put your things here.”PThe police officer gave a small basket on the table. Theodore pulled out his phone and his car key. The police officer opened his paper and was ready to write everything.“Okay, let’s start talking about our issue here.” He clicked the pen and wrote something. “Mr. Theodore Hawthorne, is it correct?”“Yes.” Theodore answered shortly.“Do you know why you are here?” The police officer looked at Theodore with a straight face. “No, I did nothing wrong.”“Are you sure? Then, why Mr. Heather informed us that her da
Landon turned the car and went to Samantha’s house. They canceled lunch time and went to Samantha right away. Theodore couldn’t think straight while reading Heather's story. Theodore was afraid that Mr. Heather would do something bad to her.“Faster, please.” Theodore said this to Landon while looking at the hectic traffic.“Yes, sir.” Landon could only nod his head.Samantha, who was walking around her room, was shocked when someone knocked on the door. “I want to be alone!”“Ms., this is me. I am bringing your lunch,” said the maid from behind the door.Samantha walked to the door and opened the door. “Thank you,” said Samantha while taking the tray.“You’re welcome, Ms.” The maid bowed before she walked back to the kitchen.Samantha closed the door with her back and locked it. Samantha was craving food because she hadn’t eaten since she woke up. Samantha put the tray on the table, and she started to eat.“Does she accept the food?” Mr. Heather asked the maid when she passed the liv
