Chapter 19 WEIRD REACTION

• I am frigidly squirming as I saunter inside the castle as the clock ticks quarter past ten. I am a nervous wreck right now because I didn't tell Jerol that I was gonna be this late. Heck! I didn't even tell him that I was going out! I wasn't intending to stay out this late, honestly, but the traffic was just savage. If only I knew...
• Locking the door behind me, I sigh in relief when I don't find this nosy big-mouthed lazy asses loitering around. They must be snoring in their rooms. I dash upstairs albeit with shaky legs. My heart is becoming heavy with every step, and I am even forgetting how to breathe at my age. Fear is taking full control.
• I compose myself when I get to our bedroom door, and take in a good amount of oxygen to try and calm my nerves. What awaits me inside this room is scaring me, because I can't tell what his reaction will be. All the same, I summon my courage, and push myself inside.
