"You're such a tease doll", I heard a deep whisper against my ear. I moved my head to my right to avoid it but a sharp pain against my neck's skin woke me up with a jolt. I sat up on the bed shocked because of a sudden stinging sensation on my neck.
I got off the bed in a hurry and rushed over to the vanity only to find myself adorned with four hickeys all over my neck.
I touched them one by one but everytime I did, a hiss escaped my lips.
How did he do this? I had put something there then how?
Yes, I had put bitter lemon juice on my neck a bit more last night while doing my skincare because I knew he was going to come after the dance. He always came so I knew he'd again do that. He must be watching me.
I gritted my teeth at my failed attempt and before I went to take a bath. My mind told to keep him away because we've been away for years now but my heart and body wanted something else. And I'm, somehow, relying on my body and heart's wishes.
After bath I wore a red coat over a deep cut sleeveless top under it and a long red straight pant. The cost covered it fully, making it appear as if I wasn't wearing anything under the coat. I tied up my hair into a low ponytail and hid the hickeys.
I've been behaving like a psycho. A normal person would do anything to push away someone from their past if they appeared in the present, even if they loved them. And there I was. There I was letting him come closer to me.
I don't know what I'm doing.
Spraying some perfume, I got downstairs to head to my office. Yesterday I had slept late so I woke up late and hence, I missed my bidding goodbye to my daughter. I was slightly drunk too.

"Let's go out today for lunch?", asked Ryle entering my cabin.
I looked up from the file and raised my brows, "Why so suddenly?", I asked once she had locked the door.
"It's been long since we went out like that and your schedule seems clear till afternoon 4", she replied coming near me.
"Okay then. Let's go", I agreed as I closed the file and we both went to have lunch.
She was right. We used to go out a lot during the days in Paris but ever since I've changed my whole existence, we've forgot almost everything we used to do.
I miss my bestfriends. I don't know what they must be doing right now. I don't even know how they must've reacted reading my letters. I know one thing that they must be very much hurt and angry on me for this step. But it had to be taken.
I sighed internally before sitting inside my car. Ryle drove us to some nearby local restaurant. Food here in Moscow was very tasty and a total new burst to the taste buds to a foreigner like me.
