It was as if they did not want us to know that they had cleaned the room,” She explained to him, and we decided to sit on the couch in the living room. Kimberly went to lay sleeping Emma on the bed.

There was a risk of going MIA travelling under these conditions in Santa Braee, especially if something serious happened; none would be able to trace us, but we hoped that would not occur. It was necessary to make sure Luis did not catch up to us. ‘Out with it, Luke,” Tia said, and I sighed. I did not know how to start, so I kissed her, but she moved away. She knew what I was trying to do,
