The Islet Mystery 4

"I'll take a quick shower first, then I'll wait for you in the dining room," Ryan said as he stood up from the bed, leaving her overwhelmed by the unexpected turn of events. She stared at him, too lost for words to reply. Seeing her reaction, Ryan bent down and gave her a quick kiss before walking up to the bathroom.

The sound of the splashing water inside the bathroom warmed her heart. Love and excitement filled her whole system, and she almost couldn't contain it. She wanted to go after him just like before, but a small voice of her conscience said no. She shouldn't allow herself to fall for him again, or else she would be courting for her doom. She knew how powerful his parents were, even if iron bars had put barriers to the spreading of their wickedness.
