Once Michelle had readied herself, they all proceeded to the private room designated for their spa experience.

Laura, initially apprehensive and wary of the chill, observed Susan’s composed manner and followed her lead, settling by the edge of the pool. Once immersed, she let out a sigh of contentment, remarking, “Truly, this spa is far more enjoyable than a simple bath at home.”

Michelle, retaining the exuberance of youth, wasted no time in playful antics. As soon as Lysander stepped into the water, Michelle began splashing her, sparking a light–hearted water fight between the two.

Susan chuckled. “So, he did pursue you, then!”
