Chapter 24 Attentions

• If I had known that there would be such traffic at the door of my room on this trip, I would have definitely worn a better pajama, not be barefoot, I would have styled my hair, and maybe done something to my face. It had been an intense day, even more intense because of everything that had happened in the last few hours... and now I had the third visitor of the night standing in front of my door. Truly, this was the day when everyone decided to knock on Adelaide's door. Who would want a day like this? Nobody, at least that's what I believe.
• Brandon is wearing one of those knitted sweaters that fit perfectly on his body, dark blue pants, formal shoes, and a truly exquisite appearance. Then I remember that he must have had the date with Katie... and it makes my stomach churn. He looks at me with a curious expression. Of course... I was saying that I was happy about our friendship... but it was directed at Michelle. Why does this always happen to me with him?
• "Oh... Brandon..." I say softly. He is a few steps away from me, I suppose trying to understand what I meant by what I said when I opened the door and still observing me. Almost involuntarily, his eyes wander over me, taking in my state, which I already said was not the best, but at least I have the hotel bathrobe on. His eyes linger on my legs peeking out from the robe, and I see his eyelashes flutter gently.
