PLEASE FORGIVE ME

Astrid woke up to Maren's tickling fingers, she slapped it away but it continued.

"Hey Let's jog around and get some exercise done! You need it!" Maren exclaimed into Astrid's ears as she slapped her hands on her forehead.

She hadn't gotten a good sleep for the night and was only trying to get one when she was woken by Maren.

"Fine!" she grumbled also seeing this as a way to get herself distracted from the crazy thought in her head.

Since Julian had shared the story about the horse-riding accident, she couldn't shake off the feeling that something wasn't quite right. 

She is crazy to understand his story of getting indebted but that story wouldn't leave her head. A similar incident had happened to her, where she saved a boy also...but the coincidence was unsettling.

Astrid had her bath, did the morning routine, and changed into her fitness outfit. Finally, she and Maren stepped out of her room.
