DISTRACTED (ELLA)

He needs to let out his sexual desire on Ella, and maybe he could have it tonight. This way, he might be helping her to shift her emotion from sadness to pleasure.

Dane would like to believe it was a better sign with Ella's reaction to his light massage.

'It could be the best time,' he thought.

Ella's mind was busy with her mom. She had been trying to seek an answer to her questions. Even a bit of reason, just to give her a little clarification, there's nothing she can't find. She must be feeling alone and lonely being in this empty home if Dane didn't go with her. At least, she was not alone, and she owed that to Dane.

Her mind may be too busy with all the contemplations she had, but she still noticed Dane. Dane was busy too, but Ella didn't mind too much about it; she knew that Dane was only trying to comfort her with all his hugs and kisses.

It's a comforting thought, maybe just what she needs, she thought. However, Dane began to move too close to her. His hand began to get uneasy. It was starting to move towards her body. He slowly slid his hands under her shirt. She didn't know where it could be heading. This is the first time he did something like this. They had been kissing and snuggling with each other. But he never tried touching her melons.

Ella didn't know how to react, and she didn't actually know where her limit should be. Maybe it was just some of the sweet stuff lovers commonly needed to do to strengthen their trust towards each other.

For her, as long as she still is technically a virgin by the time of her wedding, that day will be extraordinary for both of them. She can maybe allow Dane for some smooching and necking, as they said.

Dane started kissing on her neck, but she wasn't feeling comfortable with it. There's too much that was troubling her mind. More than her mom, she can't also help but think of the lost girl that Leira saw, Haylana Aziz.

She suddenly remembered that there was one thing that she needed to do. She needed to know about her. Unwittingly he pushed Dane away.

Dane was startled but not surprised when he stumbled to the sofa. He simply twitched his lips and thought, 'Maybe she's not really ready yet.'

While. Ella, whose thought was totally engrossed in finding some mystery. It totally took her awareness away that she could have upset Dane.

As she stood up, she went straight to the bag where her laptop was and immediately turned it on.

As the browser started to display the search bar. Her hand immediately dances on the keyboard, pressing every letter of Hayana's name. The search engine displayed all her accounts on every site and social media in just a few seconds. It was an easy find for Ella since Hayana linked all her accounts in the same e-email.

Ella was surprised after opening one of her social media accounts. She was studying in the same University as she, and the last post she had was a photo with four other girls inside the car, with a caption [Aspiring DZX sisters #firstinitiation #gogirls]

"You don't say…." Ella murmured as her eyes were fixed on the screen. She was right. She saw that girl in the river, and they probably are the girls taken by the police or the one quitting? Ella can hardly remember. However, she was already sure that Leira could probably be right, that she also had seen that girl.

But where did she seen her?

Ella clicks the back arrow on her computer to the search engine page. As she scrolled down, she noticed one site where Hayana's name was. There were other lists of those who were missing.

Ella widened her eyes in shock at what she saw being recorded in the missing person list. Haryana was actually lost and hadn't been home the exact day of the initiation. On the list were the other girls. She was within her selfie inside the car as their photos were on it too. The group of girls she was with during the exact time. In the initiation, as she posted on her social media.

Ella can't help feeling the goosebumps all over her body. She felt so scared that she just wanted to turn the computer off. Without putting it into shutdown, she just pushed it close.

When suddenly she felt a cold hand on her shoulder, it made her shriek.

It was Dane, and she was so consumed by what terrifying information she just got that she forgot totally about Dane. It was just at that moment that she realized that she had just actually left Dane. She walked away while Dane was trying to snuggle her.

She was truly a useless girlfriend. She covered her face over with her palm in that realization.

Massaging her back, Dane asked, he's voice didn't actually sound worried but rather soft and seductive. "Is there any problem? You looked so stressed, facing that laptop? Is there something in there that gives you more headaches than the thought of your mom?"

Ella's hurt pumped with worry. She wondered how long had Dane been standing there? If he had actually seen what she had been searching on her computer?

"Did you just see what I was looking at, on my laptop?" She just decided to ask him, rather than guess. So she can find the perfect alibi to answer him.

"No, actually not. You closed your laptop before I even had the chance to peek at what's giving you that stressful look on your face. I was guessing, unfinished school works?" Dane presume.

Ella sighed in relief as she smiled and tilted her head, looking over to Dane. "Yes, you're right, how can you be a real good guesser?" She pinched Dane's face, trying to be cute, trying to hide the true feeling of fear inside her.
