"Leonica, is that you?" Christian asked, his tone and expression filled with disbelief as he took a step forward.
The said female nearly shrank back at the sight of one of Gabriel's closest friends. She had not expected to run into him here, as a matter of fact, she had not expected to run into him at all.
This was bad, she thought as he her on Ashely who was now sound asleep, tightened.
Maybe she could wriggle her way out of this.
"I'm sorry, but I think you've mistaken me for someone else." She quickly dismissed him. "I'm not quiet sure I know who you are." With that, she turned and continued heading for the door.
Christian however, did not relent and rushed after her.
"It's me Leonica, Christian, Gabriel's friend."
'Of course I know that.' Leonica thought, increasing her pace.
She couldn't understand why the man was insisting on talking to her, or rather, she couldn't understand why the universe was working against her.
