"I'm going outside for some work. I'll be back soon," said Dylan, "so behave like a good girl and don't do anything stupid. Otherwise you will be punished."
Dylan's voice seemed more like a threat. He knew Amelia was just pretending to be asleep. He kissed her forehead and left the room.
Amelia sat down on the bed as soon as Dylan left. She looked irritated. She couldn't go out, because she didn't want to piss Dylan off. She knew he was doing it all for her safety, but she was still angry with him. She's not an 18-year-old who can be caged at home, she's a grown-up. She knows what's good for her or what's wrong.
At the side table, Amelia picked up her mobile phone and called Chloe.
"Hey sweetie!!" the cheerful voice of Chloe came from the other side.
"Hey!!" Amelia answered, her voice lacking enthusiasm.
"What happened?" Chloe asked, listening to Amaa's sad voice.
"Nothing," said Amelia, "Just come to my place. We can't go out."
