Reborn Through Fire (Kisa and Gilbert) novel Chapter 1308

Chapter 1308 Two Children Between Them

Someone unlocked the door. Kisa’s body instinctively tensed up, and she turned to look at the door under her blanket. The door quickly opened and closed. A slender silhouette came into the frame, and Kisa saw it walk toward her slowly. She would have been scared to death if she was not already familiar with Gilbert’s figure. She knew that he was the one who had entered.

At first, Kisa thought that the Mullen residence was eerie and weird. She even had a terrible nightmare and was pranked by someone on her first day there. She would have had the shock of her life if someone else had entered the room.

The figure stood by her window for a while; she was unsure if he was looking at her. The figure did not speak, so she did not make a sound either. After a while, he walked quietly toward the bathroom.

Just as the figure was about to reach the bathroom door, a click sounded, and the wall lamp in the room turned on in an instant. The figure froze, and after a while, he turned to look at her.

Kisa wrapped the blanket around herself and sat up from the bed, watching him quietly. Neither of them spoke, and the air was eerily quiet. After a long time, Kisa was the one who said the first word. The man had always been able to stay calm when he wanted to.

“You’re back late,” Kisa said.

“Mhm,” the man responded lightly with no apparent emotion.

Kisa wanted to say something else, but the man had already turned around and entered the bathroom. It was obvious that he was still angry. Kisa looked at the time and saw that it was almost midnight. She got up and poured herself a glass of water as she lost the urge to sleep.

She then went back to the bed, leaned against the head of the bed, and stared at the bathroom door without blinking. There was the sound of rushing water from the bathroom.
