Olivia's POV
After we finished eating, Kira and I headed back home.
I felt so drained and exhausted that all I wanted to do was take a shower and rest.
Immediately we got home, I headed straight for the bathroom, desperate to wash away my sins and become whole again. And damn, my sins were a lot.
Under the hot water shower, I let my natural hair fall around my shoulders, finally able to breathe properly. That gas I'd inhaled in Maxwell's room had messed up with my head for real.
Thank God for hot water.
When I emerged from my bedroom, wearing a free and comfortable pajamas, Kira was waiting on the couch with an expression I couldn't quite read.
"Hey," she said, dropping her phone. "Are you still planning to go to Alex's engagement party tomorrow?"
The question caught me off guard. I'd completely forgotten about the party in all the drama of today. I sank onto the couch beside her, pulling a throw pillow into my lap.
