“You didn’t have to walk me to my door,” Kit said with a smile.
Luca gave her a charming smile in return. “I couldn’t let you carry your bag up. Not the gentlemanly thing to do.”
Kit shook her head but didn’t argue, the two smiled at each other as they walked down the hall. Luca looked ahead and his face darkened. Kit noticed the change and followed his line of sight. Her smile disappearing as she spotted Maya standing in front of her door.
Kit stopped walking as she felt irritation rising within her. The fact that her mother couldn’t even give her at least a week before completely ignoring her wishes.
“We don’t have to stay,” Luca murmured as he looked at Kit in concern.
Kit smiled at Luca and squeezed his hand gratefully before shaking her head. “She’s not scaring me away from my own home.”
