CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT

Subdued

Theme Song : Julien Baker - Turn Out Lights

The bell dinged and I hurriedly went to the door. Unfortunately,it wasn't Luke...yet. Gio stood at the doorway. The masculine man had gained his lost biceps and weight. He looked more intimidating now and the black he dight from his crown to sole only highlighted it. I made way for him to enter the living room.

"He isn't here,I take it?" He required no response. He walked inside with his shoes making loud noises,moved to the kitchen. I went after him. "Hello ladies."

"Welcome Gio." Deb chirped and took a strand of hair behind her ear causing some flour to streak her cheeks. Was I missing something here? Gio's boot resounded his languid towards Deb. He took out his hanky and wiped off the flour from the sound of Deb's face.

"There,there. I'll leave you ladies to it." He left.

"He's handsome" Deb mouthed to me. I winked at her and gave her a kissy face. She blushed,swatted at me to leave and got back to work.
