Chapter SIXTY ONE

　　I walk out of the ensuite after taking a quick shower to start the day. Last night I slept in the bed by myself as Aydem and Sedar had some urgent business that they needed to take care of.

　　Truth be told, I thought he would have been back by now or at least slept in the same bed as me. 

　　Picking up my phone off the bedside table, I swipe my finger across the screen to unlock it and check to see if he at least messaged or called me.

　　Nothing.

　　Not a message, missed call, or voicemail notification pops up across my screen and the hairs on the back of my neck stick up.

　　I gnaw on my inner cheek and I decide to flick him a quick message to be sure that he is okay and nothing major has happened on his first night back on his home soil.

　　Mila: Just messaging to check that you're okay. I haven't heard from you since you left and I think it's safe to say I'm a tad bit worried.

　　My thumb hovers over the send icon. 

　　Do I sound needy?

　　Clingy?
