“Where do you think you are going?” Caleb gets up from his bed with quick and immediate effect, as he pulls Melanie back and says, immediately her hand wraps around the doorknob of her room.

“Away from you,” Melanie answers him as she opens the room door in an attempt to go out but Caleb bangs the door shut and gets in front of it.

“We are not done talking here, and as a result, you are not stepping out of that room,” Caleb tells her sternly.

“Wait a dammn minute…do you know that this is my room?” Melanie scoffs as she blinks back in shock.

“Of course, I know that,” Caleb answers her calmly.

“Why did you want to get away from me?” Caleb asks her gently, refusing to allow her to step out of her room as he places himself gracefully in front of her door.

“I need to cool down away from you” Melanie sighs as she answers him.

“Well, you can do that away from me but wedding the four corners of these walls” Caleb but she raises an eyebrow at him.

“Allow me to explain that to you” Caleb starts

    Caleb's meticulous attention to detail mesmerizes her for a moment before her alter ego takes over. “Just how many women has he done this for him to be this thorough?” She asks no one but herself. “There must have been a lot of them in his life, and now I am here on a vacation away from my crazy ex-boyfriend, but I am allowing myself to enter the league of another man's 99 other women,” she says out loud as she goes to the bathtub to examine the keen arrangement of things.“Is being in a trial relationship with Caleb Wellington the best decision?” The overthinker in her takes over “I highly doubt that” the overthinker in her continues. “Then why am I here?” The logical part of her asks. “If you ask me, your engine needed periodic servicing, and Caleb was the only good mechanic that you found.” Her alter ego replies to her. “Oh please,” Melanie rolls her eyes. “There must be other guys that are good in bed way more than Caleb.” She argues."Of course, there are other guys that w

The baby girl, Dawn is not just from any of Caleb’s one-night stands, but her flesh and blood, the child that she didn’t look at after birth because she didn’t want to get attached to, but now she is expected to just deal with it like Caleb instructed? “How could he do this to me?” Melanie’s voice trembles with rage and frustration. It just feels like she has been punched in the gut, her breath knocked out of her. “It was one of the hardest decisions of my life not to get attached to the stranger in my belly, and when I finally did, I had to just give her up because I know that giving her up is way better than having her stay with a mother that can’t cross the mountains and swim the oceans for her, but now I am expected to just…take care of her like it is no big deal?” She scoffs, her mind reeling with emotions.

It has been a year since she last stayed in this place, and she can’t help but notice how much she missed the warmth and comfort that radiated from its walls. As she walks alongside Caleb, she pants in surprise at how natural it feels to be back here, almost as if she never left, but her reverie is short-lived. They enter the foyer and are greeted by a sea of smiling faces. The stewards, who had been like family to her during her brief stay, are all lined up, eager to welcome them back.

On a second note, she thinks it might be for the better because they got there around 4 p.m., and now it is 8 p.m. with no sign of Caleb.“Should I just go now, or should I keep waiting?” She silently contemplates as she looks around the reception hallway that also doubles as the waiting room of the corporation.Melanie's eyes scan the waiting room, her gaze drifting towards the passage that she feels leads to the elevator for what feels like a hundred times.
