Chapter 11: Money
After finishing her breakfast, Rose returned to her room.
Last night because she came home late, she didn’t have time to look at her bedroom. She observed the size of the room, which was not too big. It only fit one single bed in the middle of the room. In the corner of the room near the glass window overlooking the parking lot and a busy street, there is a study table complete with a high shelf for storing books and some photos.
From the window, she can see a tall apartment building from the window that was just completed two years ago. Not only that but her house was flanked from various angles by other tall buildings. There are apartments on the left and right, while office buildings are at the back. Make the streets around her house never empty. Always crowded and lively.
Rose opened her bedroom window and breathed in the fresh morning air. After that, she looked to the other side of the room. There is a bathroom and a wardrobe that is not too big. Her bedroom is dominated by blue and white colors, not much furniture or decoration in the room, and it looks very minimalist.
"It’s nice to come back here..." Rose still couldn’t believe all of this had happened to her. How could she rebirth like the female lead she watches in drama or read in novels!? It feels unreal for her.
Still in awe of what had happened to her, Rose lay on her bed staring at the ceiling above. But not long after, she remembered her cellphone. Since last night she turned off her cellphone, too lazy to read messages from Dustin.
After finding her cellphone in her backpack, she immediately turned it on. She was surprised because many short messages came in, all from Dustin.
She read a few messages. She was stunned when she found out Dustin was waiting for her to come home last night.
"Did he see that Evan drove me home in the night?" Rose murmurs while holding her cell phone. For some reason, she feels uneasy knowing Dustin came to her house.
Still a little annoyed reading the text message from Dustin, Rose opened another text message from Evan that had just arrived. Instantly she smiled when reading it.
[Evan] I will come to your house at 10. Is it ok?
