Chapter 15

Once inside, Theo pulled me towards a desk sitting in the large foyer. Off the side of the desk was some elevators. I could see my own reflection in the stainless-steel doors. I looked around feeling very out of place. Theo was talking to the receptionist. The place was indeed like a hotel with its red and gold décor and thick black carpets. Turning around, Theo thanked the woman, who was eyeing me with the fakest smile plastered on her face. "Come, the removalists left everything in the apartment." I followed after him. I was on the bottom floor which I felt relieved about, as I always thought apartment buildings were a fire trap.
