Certain That Am Yours

Alaia's POV

Hours later, i lay awake in bed. I am still have trouble sleeping. I feel tired, but i can't seem to fall sleep, my fears won't leave me. I wondered why Nick hasn't come to bed yet, or maybe he is sleeping in the other room after all.

I have been thinking about what Marco told me about him earlier and i can't help but admire him a little for it, it definitely makes me see him in a different light. Everything he has done and achieved is worthy of respect. I can't imagine the pressure he must have been under and i wish i could have known him then and been there for him somehow.

Sighing, i decide to go out to the balcony. The weather is cool, its about to be rainy season soon, my favorite time of the year. The smell of rain somewhere close is evident in the air. The sky is abit cloudy but the moon is shining bright. I lean over the rails and just admire the beautiful estate grounds.

"Can't sleep?"
