******Erika's POV******
My eyes fluttered open, and to my biggest surprise, I found myself in an unfamiliar room. Jerking up, I sat upright, my heart racing. Confusion washed over me as I glanced around, taking in the surroundings. But then, something clicked.
The room began to feel oddly familiar, as if I had been here before. I held my head as my vision blurred, not letting me comprehend where I was. "Where am I?" I whispered, directing the question at Cindy. But to my dismay again, Cindy remained quiet, refusing to give a reply.
Wait, now I think of it, this room was my room.
At this thought, I blinked furiously and rubbed my aching head even more.
"This is… Alex's room?"
"You got it right." Cindy replied with a laugh and I clenched my fist.
"How dare you keep mute the first time?!"
"It was because you forgot this room so easily, the same room you stayed in for the past three years." She reasoned and I rolled my eyes.
"You should have told me as well, and please tell me I did nothing with Alex." Horror filled me just remembering how I initiated the kiss earlier.
He must be so mad at me for doing that.
How could I have done something as stupid and disgusting as this?!
I hurriedly checked my outfit and saw that I still had my dress on from the party. A sigh of relief left my lips as I glanced around the room one more time.
Nothing had changed at all ever since I left. I expected that Serenity would have turned this bedroom into an evil lair, but surprisingly, Alex didn't let that happen.
Just as I continued thinking about it and checking the room out again, the door was pushed open and in walked Alex carrying a tray of different dishes.
I raised a brow in surprise seeing him bring food into the room. Who was the meal for?
"You're awake!" He said with his usual charming smile, one I had always longed for in the past.
"Forget about the past now and focus on the future." Cindy pleaded.
"Yes, I'm awake." I replied with a small smile as well, then my gaze shifted to the meal he was holding.
He noticed my stare and then walked forward to place the food before me.
"I made you your favorite meal." I didn't see that coming and I gasped.
He stared at me in confusion, "Are you alright?"
Was I alright?
Definitely not!
"Yes, I'm fine. I just wasn't expecting you to cook, I mean you can cook." I was surprised and began to stutter in shock.
He chuckled and shrugged.
"Well I can't cook, but Paula taught me how to make this pack."
Say what now?
Paula taught him how to cook my favorite meal?
