"Well, well, well... having a good time here...? I wonder what the two of you could have been up to in a locked room" Albert the butler said

" we were just... checking the quality of the piano" I said

" You mean checking the quality of something else." Albert said

* Is he about to tell Mrs Mondelli?I have to act!*

" I will open the door for you for the rest of my life" I said

" ok that's enough," William said

" Hey,  that was a pretty good deal." Albert laughed

" Hey, why are you laughing?"I asked

"You owe me one, William."Albert said

" what the hell was that?" I asked

" Albert is my guy, he can keep secrets. you're... pale. Are you okay?"He asked

I was pale. And I could hardly Catch My Breath. What if we were caught by someone else? Someone Less friendly? Would I be... fired?

" that was a mistake. I didn't want to-"  I walking away

" what was a mistake? to teach me about passion-" he asked

" William,  you need to drop it."  I said pushing him away

" I didn't want any of it... Mr snuggle by the piano."I said

" Mr... what?" he asked

* I need to get out of this  room...*

" wait..." he called

"Caitlyn! wait!I'm so sorry. I think I read the signs wrong. I thought we were having a moment, but if You're not interested, That's totally fine and I respect that."He said

* we were having a moment... he didn't read the signs wrong.I just care about this job so much. I was just scared that we'd got caught*

" that's...  that's not why I ran away earlier I- -"I said

" Are you ok? Talk to me, Caitlyn, tell me what. I'm here."He said

* I want to tell him the real reason I ran away. I have to*

" I just got ...confused" I said

" Did I cross your boundaries? I'm so sorry! I must have been lost in the moment..." he said

" Believe me, I've. that's not why I pulled away... it's not about you,  it's about this job." I said

" Why do you think it's connected?  it's not about Amelia" he said

" It's not professional.  For me, this job is the most important thing in my life! I can't risk losing it!" I said

" Listen,  Albert wouldn't say anything to my parents or anyone.  it's not a bad thing I like you." he answered

* He said he likes me? focus.*

" but I do understand your point of view. I'll be careful near my parents. from now on we can treat it  more professionally when They're around."He said

" thank you..."I said

" sorry for the stress I caused you.  I was acting a little reckless.I'm glad you decided to talk things through." he said

" I have to go now.or we'll be..." I said

"caught again, I get it" He said

I went home I entered the house and went to my room straight away
