The wheels of the plane screech slightly as we land.

We're back.

Unfortunately.

I hold on to James's hand and give him a small smile. Mica is sitting in front of us, and she's still sleeping. The trip was about 6 hours. How could Mica do this 2 times a week?

I'm extremely tired and I just want to sleep.

I actually teared up a bit as we closed the door of our room and took the suitcases out.

It was all so sad to me. I had a bunch of memories in that room. Starting with the fights, and my first time..

It's dark out and I smile as I see Mr. And Mrs. Reynolds at the gate waiting for me. James's father and mother are standing there too, but he has a scowl on his face.

I let go of James's hand and run to Mrs. Reynolds.

"Lina! I'm so happy to see you," She kisses my cheek.

After some seconds I let go of her and stand in front of Mr. Reynolds. He's always been really serious and I don't think he likes hugs, so I just give him a small smile.

"What? You aren't gonna give your dad a hug?" He smiles at me and takes me into his arms. This feels so strange, but the smell of mint on his expensive jacket makes me feel nice. "We missed you Lina," He says as he backs away.

"Lina! Sweetie! How ya doin'?" I hear James's mom's voice. I turn around and try not to roll my eyes as I also see Mr. Walker.

His mom hugs me very quickly and she says "You can call me Amy now. I don't like being called anything else." She gives me another smile. She seems nice enough.

"Hello, beautiful Angelina." His horrible voice gives me goosebumps.

"Hello Richard." I say, completely serious. Sticking my hand out for him to shake, I really don't want a hug from him, so this is the best I can do.

He takes my hand very firmly and shakes it as he slightly chuckles. "You can call me Mr. Walker now. I don't like being called anything else either."

"Um, okay. Dad give me the keys." James says firmly, as he stands in front of me. He already has the suitcases.

"Oh, right. Almost forgot. Here you go." He digs his hand into his pocket and pulls out a pair keys.

James takes it in his hand. "Did you bring my car?"

"Obviously, James." The man says.

"Okay. See you some other day. I'll be at the house to recollect some of my things on Friday." James says.

"Whatever pleases you son."

After that very awkward talk we get into James's red car. It's beautiful but considering I don't know much about cars, I can't say anything other than the fact that it's red.

James pulls up in a big building.

There are other cars parked outside as well, and they look very nice. The building looks comforting.

It doesn't look too extravagant so I'm happy about that.

"This is our new home?" I ask, and feel like tearing up.

"Yes. I know you don't like things that are too fancy and this place looks nice so I thought it'd be good." He smiles at me.

We get inside and James places our suitcases on the ground. The living room is incredibly beautiful. I jump on top of him out of excitement and wrap my arms around him. I can't believe we're going to be living here. I'm pretty sure this apartment building isn't just for rich people and that's what makes me love it the most. I'll feel much more comfortable.

The beige couches take my breath away, and so do the paintings on the wall. There is a big picture hung in the middle of the living room, and I absolutely hate it.

It's the day of our wedding. You can tell that the small smile I have on my face is forced and it looks like of I wanted to cry.

"You look so miserable." James laughs.

"Yeah, can we take it down?" I beg of him.

"Yeah. We should get the pictures re-taken." He chuckles.

"Yeah," I laugh along.

"So, who decorated the apartment?" I smile.

"My mom."

"Wow. I actually really like it. I like how it's not that modern. I don't really like modern stuff." I shrug.

"Yeah, I was extra special with my instructions. I wanted it to be perfect. Our first new home." He takes a deep breath.

"First?" I furrow my eyebrows.

"Yeah, I mean.. When we expand our family we'll obviously have to get a bigger place."

"Yeah." I chuckle in an uncomfortable way. "Expand." I continue the strange laughing.

"Not yet obviously." He smiles and grabs my hand. "Let's go check out the rest of the house."

There is a guest room, which is beautifully decorated. Then our room, which has an amazing terrace outside. I open the big glass door, and step outside.

It's not big, but it's very pretty.

There is a plant outside as well, but it's dead. Probably cause of the clouds. There is no sun. It isn't cold out, but still, the sun is missing.

I find myself drifting off, thinking about the beautiful sunsets and sunrises.

I continue to stare at the building from the outside

I feel James's hand on my waist.

"Do you like it?" He asks.

"Huh?" I come back. I was thinking about the island, so I'm not sure I heard him correctly.

"Do you like the place?" He smiles.

"I love it." I smile and take him into my arms. I back away slightly, and connect my lips with his. I'm on the railing, and I smile on his lips.

"I'm so glad I met you Lina." James says.

"Me too."

His beautiful green and hazel eyes stare deep into me, and suddenly I feel guilt in my heart.

I sometimes feel like he knows I'm lying, and he knows I'm simply a maid, but then I convince myself he doesn't know.

"We should.. Unpack." I quickly say, just to get my mind off the stupid subject.

"Okay." He simply agrees.

I don't want to be distant with him but everything I get really close, I just feel like I should tell him everything. But what if he didn't want to be with me after that? I could never deal with his rejection.

I know the truth will come out eventually, but today is not the day. So I put a fake smile on my face and go help him unpack.
