I forced myself out of bed and walked to the wall; I pulled the drapes apart to allow some light into the room. I turned away with a groan when the sunrays from outside burned my eyes. I allowed my eyes to adjust to the light before pulling the drapes properly.
I found a note on my nightstand. It said,Good luck on your finals, with aTat the bottom. I knew it was from Tristan.
I went to the bathroom and brushed my teeth before sitting down to take my exams. It lasted for three and a half hours.
I was starving by the time I finished. I smiled at Morris as he served me my breakfast. My phone rang when I was about to take a bite of my French toast.
I looked at my screen. Adrian was calling on FaceTime. I dropped the bread and picked up the call. He greeted me with his trademark smile, the smile that had once made my heart melt.
“Hey.” I waved.
“Hey, Chloe.” He brushed his full hair back.
I noticed the dark circles beneath his eyes.
“Are you okay? You look exhausted,” I asked.
“We were up all night, packing for our vacation.”
“You’re going on vacation?”
“Yeah. Bali.”
“Nice.”
“Who is it?” I heard Karen’s voice from the other end.
“It’s Chloe,” he told her and turned to look at me.
Karen appeared; he kissed her on the lips, and she sat on his lap. I must admit, they looked cute together.
“Hey, Chloe.” Karen smiled.
“Hi, Karen. How long are you guys staying?”
“A month, right?” She looked at him, not sure about her answer.
“Yeah.” He nodded.
“Well, have fun and don’t forget to bring me something.”
“Sure,” Karen said, sounding more excited about the vacation.
“I will fix us something to eat. Bye, Chloe,” Karen said.
“Okay, bye!”
She kissed him on the lips and left.
I decided to ask Adrian about Nadia. I wanted to know if Tristan had told me the truth because I was so sure he wasn’t married.
“Can I ask you something?” I asked when I heard the bedroom door close.
“Sure.” He nodded.
“Uh, do you know—”
“Hey, man,” Adrian cut me off, staring at something behind me.
