Demetrius stepped aboard the ship. Taking a seat, he couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement as he retrieved his cell phone from his pocket.

With a smile playing on his lips, he decided it was the perfect moment to initiate the transfer he had been contemplating.

His fingers danced across the screen, eager to complete the process swiftly. Yet, as the transfer progress bar filled, his gaze wandered to the application Persie had left on the cell phone.

A wave of unease washed over Demetrius as his eyes fell upon his diary app, still installed and seemingly untouched. Time seemed to stand still as he hesitated, unsure of whether he should delete the app or not.

Part of him recognized that keeping it could potentially deepen his connection with Persie. It held the possibility of granting him valuable insight into Persie's thoughts and emotions, fostering a stronger bond between them.
