chapter 54 (could it be love?)

Alma gasped as soon as she heard Ellie say the last part. With widened eyes and excitement on her face she asked; "He almost did?! Why didn't he?! But wait a minute..." She shifted on the bed towards Ellie and grinned, "is he handsome?"

"He is more than handsome, Alma. I wonder why I didn't notice it the first time that I saw him." She sighed. "He is just divine and it was so intense. The atmosphere surrounding me at that time felt...it is just indescribable. I don't know him but somehow I feel comfortable about him. I didnt feel scared when I was standing with him. I have never felt this way all my life."
