Before midnight, she left the hostel and took a cap to George's apartment building. Halfway there, she realized she had forgotten her phone.
Once she reached the reception, she waited for the manager to finish his call. The man had seen her with George and was trying to convince someone to fix the garden tap before the tenants came after him.
Like a good girl, she decided to wait while all she wanted to do was hold him by the collar and ask him to call George down.
She was standing there with her feet, aching in exhaustion. She was still deciding if she should protest when the entrance door behind her flew open making her flinch and a girl came inside with an easygoing aura.
"Sweetheart. I need to go to my boyfriend's apartment. You know me, right?" she didn't even care that he was busy on the phone. Aniya tilted her head, and she thought she was imagining it.
