Capítulo 55: Chapter 10

Vanessa

In the midst of soaking in the bath when I heard a noise, I knew Xavier had to back to the office so I was startled. I sat up, listening carefully incase I just imagined it. The bathroom door was slightly opened letting the room light sip through. Did Xavier come back early? He said he would be home at night time. Did he come back to tell me he changed his mind about me staying here?

I heard another creaking sound as if opening a door, the hair on my neck stood up. Getting out the bath quietly, I put on the white robe that was hanging on the wall. My first thought was to check on Amelia, maybe she was awake. I paddle out the bathroom my wet feet living footprints on the carpet.

"Xavier?" I called out into the empty hallway, Amelia's room was right in front of the guests I was staying in.
