Chapter 13: Bathing in Confessions

After arriving at the spa, Lauren and I made our way to the ladies' changing room while the gents went to the men's. We took a much-needed shower and stepped out of the shower boxes with clean, white towels wrapped around our bodies.

'I feel better already', Lauren said and sighed deeply as she stretched her arms and back.

'Tell me about it', I said as we made our way out of the changing room and into the jacuzzi room nearby. 

We sat down next to each other and were handed a sparkling glass of fruit-infused water that was a much-needed refreshment after a long, hot day.

'Cheers to a hard day of work', Lauren said as she raised her glass.

'Cheers!', I saluted in return and we clinked our glasses and started sipping on our drinks.

'I suppose building a barn is very different from what you're used to', I told her.

'Very different, but I actually enjoyed it', she said and shrugged merrily.
