Complicated Interruption

Someone was standing outside, and the knot that formed in the pit of my stomach told me exactly who it was.

“What should we do?” I asked in a panicked whisper. I couldn’t believe at first that Rosabella was at my door, but I was certain that I had just heard her voice. My body froze beneath Raphael as I wondered what I should do.

“Just ignore her,” Raphael advised, and I could tell that he truly intended to do just that and continue with our passionate lovemaking. I wished that I could simply ignore her, but her presence right on the other side of the door felt so distracting and filled me with so much guilt. She went silent for a short moment, but just when I started to relax while thinking that she had gone away, I heard louder knocks on the door.
