Chapter 123

"What are you doing?" Sophia heard someone whispering from behind her. She panicked, scattering the paper she had in her hand all around the floor. 

"Aiden!" she squealed, "Are you trying to give me a heart attack?" she snapped at him.

"I came to see you," Aiden stated.

"I was in the living room the whole time, but I never heard you knock or ring the bell," she complained.

He shrugged off her comment, "It's too tedious to go out the front door, going through the back is way easier." He sat on the sofa, flicked on the remote to find himself something good on her TV.

"Aiden, can you promise me something? Tell me you won't come through the balcony anymore, please," she pleaded.

He ignored her the whole time, watching TV as his life depended on it. 

"Are you listening to me?" she raised her voice at him, not seeing him secretly smiling as he continued to ignore her demands.
