Chapter 32: You are not welcomed
Unbeknownst of the trouble that was steering in the office, Inez returned home. Fortunately for her, her mother was not at home and neither was Ricky. Sighing in relief, Inez took off her jacket and then threw it on the rack. She had been wearing it for an entire day and night; now it was sticking to her skin, which made her feel icky.
She headed for the stairs and went straight to her room, where she took a bath and changed her clothes. Just as she stepped out of the bathing room, she saw Scarlet rushing right in.
The second Scarlet’s gaze fell on her; she released a heavy sigh of relief.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" She asked. Marching towards her, Scarlet hugged Inez tightly. "Where in the world did you go last night? If you wanted to change the plan, then you could have just told me. Why did you go missing out of nowhere?"
Scarlet didn’t tell how worried she was when she didn’t see Inez last night.
Inez threw the towel with which she was drying her hair and sighed. "It’s a long story."
"Then shorten it up for me," Scarlet shrugged her shoulders and remarked. With her arms crossed, she said, "You know that I will not leave the matter alone if you don’t tell me the truth."
Simple and straightforward.
Though Inez liked her sister’s personality, sometimes she wondered if Scarlet even knew how to hesitate sometimes.
