Peaceful Intermission
The warm water of the shower felt very calming on my skin and worn-out body. I washed my hair and body, and I was feeling much better by the second. I just wanted to stand here for a while longer to feel the light pressure of the water drops against my naked skin. The sound of the running water can calm my nerves effectively.
Suddenly, the bathroom door opened. I’m very sure that I locked it when I came in. Well, I guess there isn’t a door in this house that the master of the house couldn’t unlock. Why should I be surprised? The concept of ‘private space for Natalia’ clearly did not exist in Edward’s book.
“Natalia…” Edward called my name cheerfully as he popped his head in from the doorway. Edward appeared completely naked except for a white towel wrapped around his waist.
