Weston sat on the couch and covered his eyes with one hand. After a long silence, he finally pleaded in a raspy voice, “Just let me stay here for a little while, okay?”

Stella walked up to him. Only then did he put his hand down as he looked at her.

“I’ll just sit here for a while, and then I’ll go, okay?”

Stella ignored him and just stood over him and looked down at him. After remaining silent for a while, she finally relented and told him, “You’re only allowed to sit here for a while, and then you’ll leave, understood?”

Weston nodded.

Stella turned around and walked away. She headed towards the balcony to put away her things and returned to her bedroom.
