Semua Bab Nathaniel: Bab 91 - Bab 96

“You could have offered to let me be your human servant and then allowed me to live my life with Tim, but you didn’t. Instead, you took what you wanted without a second thought about what I would think or feel about it. That made me angry, and I wanted to hurt you, so I went to Tim. I chose him automatically. If I had been rational about the situation, I would have sat you both down and had a conversation about it all, but I didn’t.”  “Then I cut you out completely later on. I had no reason to do that as Tim knew I wasn’t with you and that I was being faithful to him. But I wanted him to be positive about it, and frankly, I wasn’t sure if I could be completely faithful if I continued to have a relationship with you. I always thought about you and had to push those thoughts and feelings away while I was with Tim.&

I walked over to where the driver was placing my bags onto a luggage trolley and took my wallet from my purse. I handed him 20 euros, and he thanked me. I smiled and walked back to the desk. The clerk gave me the room key and my ID. I thanked him and walked over to the elevator. The porter got on with me, and we went to the room. He must have thought it odd that I didn’t give him the bag from my back, but I ignored his strange looks.   Once we got to the room, he unloaded the luggage onto the luggage racks, and I tipped him. He smiled and thanked me before exiting the room. I placed the bag on the bed and put my purse on the nightstand. The curtains were wide open, so I walked over to the windows and closed them. The room wasn’t pitch dark, but the sun wasn’t hitting directly on the bed. I walked over and unzipped the bag. 

When I woke up, I stretched out without thinking about it. I was surprised to find that I was no longer in the bag. Dominique didn’t even like to sleep in the bed with me because I was cold when I died for the day. She had overcome her fear enough to take me out of the bag, which required touching me. I knew before I even opened my eyes that she was not in the bed with me. I sighed and sat up.   The room I was in was dark, but I heard the sounds of a TV show playing. I smelled food, so Dominique must be in the suite's living room. I got up and realized it was so dark in the room because the sun was setting, and blackout curtains were hanging up. Dominique must have brought them with her as I saw the hooks on the wall holding them up. I had not thought about doing this. It was thoughtful of Dominique.
