Chapitre 13: Chapter 13

Reeta finds her own clothing, and Naomi’s jeans. “Winter Fox. I have your trousers. Come back to the deck and dress.”

Both women quickly scramble into their clothing, gather the pile of towels, and put the top towels in the dirty basket, then fold the others and replace them on the shelves.

Reeta takes Naomi’s hand and pulls her close for one final kiss. Then the two head back toward the main building and Naomi’s room, trying to appear casual and friendly.

As they enter the back door to the center, Reeta releases Naomi’s hand after giving her a quick grin and a wink. Naomi, greeting Lianna and Sandy in the main room, has a delicious sense of keeping a secret.

Naomi greets her friends by reintroducing Reeta. “Hey guys. Remember Reeta from the communal dinner a while back? She wanted to see more of the outdoor part of the center.”
