Kapitel 17: CHAPTER SEVENTEEN – Preparations (part two)

　　Emma POV

　　I was sitting in my room waiting for Amy to come over and help me get ready for dinner tonight.

　　My ribs felt so much better. I still needed to be careful when I moved, but it didn’t hurt nearly as much as the first day.

　　Thankfully, I haven’t had any more encounters with Sienna since the day she broke my ribs all over again. She hadn’t been coming to the house since then, and I had never felt more at peace. Somehow, I knew it wouldn’t last long though.

　　I was pulled out of my thoughts by the knock on the front door. I looked at my watch and saw it was only 2 pm. Amy was coming over at 4 pm. Who could that be?

　　I walked downstairs and opened the door. Jake was standing there smiling at me.

　　“Jake.” I said with a big grin on my face. “Come in. I missed you.”

　　“I missed you too, beautiful.” he said and walked by me to enter our living room.

　　He sat down on the couch and looked up at me.

　　“What are you doing here?” I asked and closed the front door.
