She felt the rest of her body cover in chills, despite the intense heat of the water. Deciding she had had enough daydreaming, she stood to exit the t...ub. No towel in sight, she called out to Shion, asking for a towel, but he didn't respond.She knew he hadn't left, she could feel their bond like she felt her heartbeat, and knew he was nearby. Perhaps making tea... maybe waiting for her in the room.Chalise smiled at the thought. Lifting her legs over the edge of the bathtub, the water fell from. Someone that awful should have horns or something like thatto distinguish him from the rest of us. After a further twenty minutes orso, he got to his feet, and we followed suit."It's been enjoyable catching up with you both and meeting young FrauleinSchumacher," he said, "but there is much that needs my attention so Ireally must be going now, so farewell."He shook hands with Helmut and me, gave Gerda a brief hug, and then he wasgone. I collapsed back on the sofa and let out a deep sigh, feeling. She was a prominent figure in the public’s eye, and yet was nothing more to them but a dutiful wife standing at her husband’s side. I had this deep feeling in my gut that I was going to despise this woman, and my gut is rarely wrong. One thing I did know for certain about Elizabeth Facelli was that she was born into money, and then she married into money, having never been left to want for need for anything, just like her daughter, Ally. It just made me hate her all the more. So why did I even. We walked into the room and she helped me put on my trunks as another knock came at the door. Mr. Jim yelled out that my mom was here and it was time to go. I kissed Ms. Wendy goodbye and thanked her for the bestest birthday present ever. She said she was glad to do it, but that it had to remain our little secret. I agreed and walked to the door opened and there stood Mr. Jim and all my friends were gathered around the bar area cheering me and wishing me a happy birthday as Mr. Jim walked me.
