Chapter 24

I sat on the bed when I heard the doorbell is ringing. I glanced at the wall clock and it showed one in the afternoon. Who was at this time?

I wiped my tear-stained face with a towel and opened the door only to see Juliet who was standing there wearing a worried expression on her face.

"I didn't expect to see you here," I said before opening the door for her to enter. "Sit, I get some water for you." I said and walked towards the kitchen.

I set the cookies and two glasses of orange juice on the table then I took a place on the couch beside her.

"Riya, it's not my first time me visiting your apartment. I don't think these formalities are still needed." I suppressed my lips to prevent let out a sob.

"I'm sorry, Riya. If you are not comfortable with me staying here, I will leave." I shook my head. "No need to say sorry Juliet, it's not your fault and I'm glad you are here for me." I said with a grumbled voice.
