Enjoy the time in the hot water and when I have washed up and cleaned my hair I rest back and close my eyes. Trying to remember the last time I got the opportunity to relax and just be in the moment. It has to be over a year ago since I could relax like this. I was alone in the house and everyone was away overnight! I had the best evening for ages, and after I had cocked myself a nice pasta dish I went up and had several hours in the bathroom. For me, it was a luxury to get some time to myself and after a facemask and some good body lotion after a shave and shower, it all felt a little better that night. But it was all I got, the next day it was the same as always! Except they all came home

The motion of his touch lulled her into a state of deep relaxation, her worries and aches melting away. Unbeknownst to Lena, the serenity of the moment enveloped her, tugging her gently into the embrace of slumber. Jayden, observing the peaceful expression on her face, couldn't help but smile. He recognized the exhaustion that had overtaken her, and with a tender understanding, he made the decision to allow her to rest.

It is, without a doubt, the best twenty minutes I have ever spent in my life. I feel the smooth, rhythmic pressure of their hands breaks down the knots in my shoulders, untangling the deep, physical knots left behind by days of working, hiding, and hustling for my life. For the first time in as long as I can remember, my mind goes completely blank. The constant, buzzing anxiety in my brain quietens down to a low hum, then vanishes entirely. Fifteen minutes later. When they finish, my bedroom smells peaceful, filled with the rich, earthy scent of lavender, cedarwood, and expensive oils. I lie there under the soft sheet, feeling heavy, warm, and entirely disconnected from the stress of the wor

The next three weeks were the longest of my life. Bedrest sounds relaxing, at first. No work, no obligations, no having to do anything except lie there while people bring you food. By the end of week one, I felt I was about to lose my mind. The penthouse walls were closing in, I had seen every movie on every streaming service twice over and had three books under my belt, and was in the process of starting a fourth. I’d even attempted knitting, which proved to be a catastrophic failure.

The coffee on the table smelled faintly of warmth and comfort, but even that small pleasure seemed distant. A buzz interrupted the quiet. I reached for my phone. Jeff. “The plane is ready if you want to leave this morning,” his message read. I typed back immediately: Yes. Come pick me up in thirty minutes. The bath was ready when I entered, steam curling into the air. I sank into the warmth, letting it wash over me. It was more than relaxation—it was a balm, dissolving the tension in my muscles, the tight coil in my chest from the events I had set into motion. I closed my eyes, letting my thoughts drift, replaying nothing and everything all at once. The quiet allowed me to breathe fully for

“And I didn’t make it. I ordered it. It’s only on plates and not the plastic containers it came in because I put it in the warming drawer and didn’t think the plastic would hold up.” “Good. You need to keep resting so you can get better.” “I’m bad at it.” We break apart and she goes to the table. “At what?” I ask, washing my hands. “Resting. I love sitting and watching TV for hours when I have something to do, but when I’m supposed to take it easy, I get restless.” I laugh. “I feel the same. It took me a while to finally figure out if I give myself a good day or two to just sleep, I get better in half the time.”

Compared to being exposed to the elements outside, at least the restroom shielded me from the storm. The silent restroom was filled only with the faint sound of my breathing and the howling wind outside. All of the hurt and past grievances that I'd deliberately tried to shove aside came flooding over me once more. I remembered what had happened last Christmas. Ava received a brand-new fur coat, and Jamie got a limited-edition werewolf figurine. What I got was a hand-me-down sweater from Ava, which she'd outgrown. The collar was already loose from repeated wear and washing, and the sleeves were fraying.
