Leah Morris

When someone knocked on the door to my apartment, I immediately walked towards it and opened the door. I was hoping to see Adrian but it was not him.

I don't know this man, I've never seen him before.

As I was about to greet him, a woman showed up behind him and I looked at the both of them confused.

"You must be Leah, right?" He asked and the guards didn't even stop them so I'm assuming that he's one of Adrian's friends.

"I am, but.. who are you guys?" I asked.

My husband clearly doesn't understand the situation.It was pretty obvious to me that Leah was still not realizing her own feelings. She has not idea if she likes the guy or not. I was pretty confident that she needs a little push but we should we a little bit of time for that.Not only Leah but also Adrian.I don't even know if he likes Leah or he loves Leah. Even though he's asking us for help to prevent her from leaving, he's not making enough effort for her to stay.I think this might be a good way for them to figure out their feelings.

    Adrian Nielsen"Hey, are you okay?" Lana asked as she gave me a hug."I think I am, I don't know." I said as I pulled back. I gestured her to sit down and she gave me a light smile."I never thought would be seeing you like this.""Well.. I never thought Leah would leave right away after I sent you and Phoenix there." I said truthfully and I was a little bit hurt by her decisions. She didn't even call me to tell me that she's leaving."Listen, Adrian. It was clear that we all can see that Leah has been through some shit and I'm not going to ask you for details about it but.. she's still figuring out her feelings.""Me too, not only her.

I can't stop thinking about him.I asked Jack about Adrian but he said he never came to work this week. If he doesn't come to work, then where would he be? In Denmark? I mean it's possible but why wouldn't he pick up the phone?I was pacing around the room, completely trying to solve this mystery. I texted Lana over and over again but she got none. She got no information too and she told me that it was hard for them to communicate because they shouldn't be communicating."Leah, you should hold a mop while you're at it." My brother said and I glard at him hard.

I said and she opened her eyes. She sat up and she turned to me."I can't sleep, it gives me anxiety. I can't sleep." She said and she got up from the bed.
