Sleep didn’t come easy. Lena lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling as her mind wandered, replaying the events of the day; it replayed in her mind like a stubborn loop. Every time she shut her eyes, she saw him, Jayden. His shirtless body, the confidence that he carries, feels like the world bent to his will.It irritated her.She turned to her side with a frustrated sigh, pulling the duvet closer to her body. Why am I even thinking about him? She muttered quietly. She had come here to spend time with Richard. For peace. Not for… whatever this was.By the time morning came, she had barely slept.Sunlight filtered through the curtains, soft and golden, stretching across the room. Lena groaned softly, rubbing her eyes before sitting up. Her head was banging.“Great,” she whispered. “First day here and I already feel like shit.”She pushed herself out of bed and headed to the bathroom, hoping a cold splash of water would help.After a quick shower, she stood in front of her open suitcas

The next day Lena woke up as she heard her phone ring.Hello, yeah, who is this?"Uhm, are you Miss Lena?" a male voice asked.Yeah... how may I help you?Yesterday we arrested Jadyden Blake for reckless driving while drunk.What! She said as she almost gagged.How? He didn't leave the house, did he?So he gave us your number; you need to come over and bail him. I will see you at the address."Right, I'm on my way; give me some minutes," I say as the call ends.I can't believe this. How many problems does he want to bring to me?I should call Richard...or maybe not; he's probably busy since he has not called me today.She locks the door and waits for the taxi.Locating the station wasn't difficult; reaching there, she sighted an officer on the counter.Hello, please. I'm here to bail someone. She saidHe asked for her ID, and then she paid the bail amount.What's the name?Lenna QuinnHe gives her a quizzical look. Is that the person's name?"Oh, sorry," she says, embarrassed, Jayden.
