Chapter 41

  I'm sorry," Maya choked out, her voice sounding muffled and choked with sorrow. The apology lingered in the air, heavy with the weight of unspoken secrets and hidden anguish. Just as soon as Maya finished speaking, there was a soft knock on the door. Slightly startled, she quickly wiped away her tears, gesturing to Rose to do the same. They hastily straightened their postures and put on forced smiles, hoping the person behind the door wouldn't notice the traces of their now red faces.Prisca entered the room, her eyes scanning the scene with a mixture of curiosity, and with an expression of slight mockery that only Rose could notice. She  knew that  Rose had been going through a difficult time lately, but the true extent of her pain remained concealed. Prisca approached them slowly, her voice was firm and showed the littlest of  concern."Rose, are you alright?" Prisca asked, her eyes narrowing slightly as she took

With a cautious push, the door swung open silently, revealing the room beyond. She hesitated for a moment, contemplating whether to enter or go back into her room,and return later. The pain in her body made the decision for her — she chose to step inside, closing the door behind her. The room greeted her with a familiar and serene atmosphere, the subtle hum of the air conditioning filling the air. The moonlight filtered similarly through the partially drawn curtains, casting a soft glow over the familiar surroundings. Rose took a mome

He made sure it was comfortable enough for her to sit, showing that he knew about the shortcomings in her body that were still healing, one that he contributed greatly to.  Sebastian had paid for the resort, it was a beautiful sight to behold and one with the right mind would know that it was constructed for people to visit and fill their eyes and imaginations.  Rose stared at the large mass of spaces that was right before them, she was caught up in the beauty that she now saw very clearly.
