~ Switzerland, Interlaken ~
In the hallway of the hotel…
Charlie is waiting for Emma in the hallway.
He didn't want to enter into Mrs. Ronin's suite this early in the morning (or is it late at night?) because his future mother-in-law might be in her nightgown. At the same time, he will not allow Emma to walk through the hallways of the hotel by herself considering that there might be drunk people lingering after the party.
Charlie saw Emma standing in front of the closed door of Mrs. Ronin's suite without moving and he was surprised that she was not inside for more than few minutes. He wondered if he slept off while waiting.
"That was fast…", Charlie said and yawned. When they left the party, Charlie wanted to sleep in their room, but Emma was tossing and turning in the bed and neither of them slept so far. "Did you talk to her?"
"Yeah.", Emma said absentmindedly.
"What did she say?", Charlie was curious.
