Chapter 49 Double Up

Emma's POV

I was pacing the room back and forth and in circles. I turned off the television for the third time, but I didn't want to feel alone. I turned it back on and sat down on the huge bed, feeling drained and scared.?

Ethan had already left for work and I didn't want to get his attention yet, so I didn't call him.

I felt like I was burning up so I undressed and stepped into the shower, turning the water cold until I felt better.?

I toweled off my wet skin and changed into pajamas. I walked to the patio for a breath of fresh air because I felt like I was drowning with sorrow and happiness.

Chef served my breakfast, but I couldn't eat. I couldn't even stand the sight of the meal. I wished I had a dog so I could just toss the food over to it.

Ethan came home at six but headed to the office to complete a task.?

Afterward, he met me upstairs in the bedroom.

"Hey baby, how was your day?" He asked as he entered.

"Fine."

"You don't sound fine, what's going on?"?
