Isabella grunted softly, almost forgetting that was Madelyn's family house. “Oh sweet, I've been wanting to watch this movie.” He settles onto the couch between them, digging his hand into the bowl of popcorn. She catches Ethan’s eyes over his head. So much for their alone time.?
Eventually the movie draws her in, she was able to ignore the ‘what ifs’ floating around her head.?
Early the next morning. Isabella pours herself a cup of coffee and make it outside, hoping to have a minute alone with her thoughts. “Good morning, Isabella. Sleep well?” She stop short at the sight of Madelyn already on the patio, piles of paperwork in front of her, she clearly had an early start to her day. That’s if she ever went to bed. “Madelyn, you scared me!”
“Seriously, you need to stop being surprised when you see me in my own home.” She rolled her eyes and turned away. “Right. Sorry.” She waves away Isabella’s apology as if it means nothing.?
