Eva didn't protest when Phina requested help with the dish after breakfast. She went to prepare for her date with Patrick by changing into new clothes. She was still determining their day's course and needed to know where he would take her. However, she prayed for the best. And that, as Mia had informed her the night before, there was hope for the two of them.
After getting dressed, she got up to make sure nothing was missing. She grabbed her phone and put it in her sling bag before leaving the room to look for Patrick.
She pounded on the library door. Since the day they came and Phil toured her and his wife around the house, she had not visited that side of the residence. She heard him telling her to come in from within, and it opened when she hit the button on the door's keypad.
She entered the cozy space. She pondered why the room seemed warmer than the rest of the house.
