You nervously laugh at the strange request, "Maria... I'm half-naked here." You fan out your arms around your towel to further present that you are indeed, only wearing a towel.

Maria backs up a little, she seems a bit disoriented, "I'm so sorry Lucas, I-I-I- I don't know what came over me..."

Maria tries to say more, but her words fail her. After a few seconds of standing in the hallway, attempting to say something, Maria simply shuts her mouth and walks back down the hallway towards the kitchen, having not said much of anything.

You enter your room after that odd conversation in the hallway, you quickly throw on some clothes and take the laptop you brought with you out of your suitcase, although you're on vacation to visit your parents for the holidays, your work never seems to truly stop.

Some time passes, and out of pure boredom you lazily start to comb over your room for anything to occupy your mind, that's when some dirty dishes on your nightstand catch your eye. Maria had brought you breakfast while you slept, but it was cold by the time you woke up and ate it. You ponder whether you should take the dishes to Maria or just go back to work, you're especially hesitant after that awkward exchange in the hallway.
